Description
We are in Luleå, a city on the coast of northern Sweden and the capital of Norrbotten County, Sweden's northernmost county.

The film opens with an icebreaker. We see the ship which is stopped and people on the deck who do the necessary work and then it starts its course. As it sails forward, we see its name “ODEN” with the lens focusing on the frozen waters. A man stands on the deck enjoying the view and afterwards the camera gives us views of the area.

The filmmaker shows us the ship which sails on the pieces of ice and with a close-up shot, we see how it breaks them as it passes through. We watch the chunks of ice and shots of the frozen landscape. We see the ship’s bow as well as one more icebreaker ahead and we get back to views of the frozen sea. The filming continues with the bridge of the icebreaker ahead, the crew on the deck as well as a close-up shot on its name: “TOR”.
