Hanna (Sarah Polley), a mysterious, introverted young nurse, accepts a job caring for perceptive, ironic Josef (Tim Robbins), a temporarily blind burn victim, on an oil rig in the Irish Sea. Nonoperational, the desolate rig is sparsely inhabited by a crew of loners, with only the roaring waves and a resident goose for distraction.

As Hanna tends Josef's wounds, it soon becomes clear he's desperate to divulge secrets–as if words and transparency will free him from his sightless, immobile state. Meanwhile, Hanna remains protectively silent, listening acutely but revealing little, and Josef never demands more. Incrementally, a sense of mutual recognition and empathy unfolds between them, gently evaporating shields of distrust and cynicism.
