Based on Catherine Poulain’s autobiographical novel, Grand Marin marks Dinara Drukarova’s directorial debut. Shot in Iceland, including 23 days at sea, the film blends raw realism with poetic visuals. Cinematographer Timo Salminen and composer Jean-Benoît Dunckel bring depth to this intimate, physical odyssey.
Premiered at the San Sebastián Film Festival, Grand Marin is a powerful tribute to resilience and the call of the open sea.
