In summer 1975 at the Constanța Shipyard, director Mihai Coman pushes to cast a massive ship propeller in-house, facing technical failures, internal resistance, and political hesitation. As the casting repeatedly breaks and deadlines loom, he must overcome engineering hurdles and personal sacrifices to see the vessel launched with the home-forged propeller.
