No human presence seems to disturb the scale and beauty of the Baltic Sea, spectacularly depicted here in all its sound, color, and texture. The force of the sea is revealed in a sequence of large shots that work harmoniously with the rhythms of nature. Suddenly, an enormous oil tanker thrusts itself on the scene, disrupting the flow of currents, winds, and the skyline as it plies the Gulf of Finland.  The immense scale of the oil industry mirrors the grandeur of the sea, as humans, technology, and nature converge in unexpected ways in this quiet, lyrical film.  MR
