About the show

After a shipwreck, Breton fisherman Tual recovers in Iceland at the home of Jörgen and his daughter Kaethe. Tual and Kaethe fall in love and marry, but Tual grows homesick for Brittany. Although Kaethe tells him she is pregnant and he promises they will stay together, news of fishermen from his home awakens his longing. He dreams of Brittany and tries to cross the Hrafuaga swamp; it breaks beneath him and swallows him as Kaethe watches.
