Seafaring as an extended meditational retreat:

In late 2018, overwhelmed by a desire to be on her own, Emma Ringqvist set sail from the Baltic Sea towards Brazil. She would eventually cover 15,000 sea miles across the North and South Atlantic, 164 days in all, of which 67 were spent offshore, alone, without an engine, on her non-stop return voyage.

A well-crafted, moving film, directed by Mattias Olsson.
