In this docu-fictional work, the anthropomorphised container vessel Ocean Master enters into a dialogue with the workers at the Gadani ship-breaking yard. The conversation moves from dreams and desires to places that can be called home and the structural violence embedded in the act of dismembering a ship. Although they face death on a daily basis, the workers still look towards a better future.
