Kino Monoplexx: Home is the Ocean (German)

In the infinity of the sea, an eight-member Swiss family has found their home far away from the comfort zone.

25 years ago, the parents set sail to conduct field research in the most remote regions of the world and to inspire the next generation for nature. Along the way, their 6 children were born, each in a different corner of the Earth. They spend 24 hours together in 20 square meters of living space. Seven days a week. Every family member plays an important role in this well-rehearsed ensemble. This is the only way the system works. However, the growth of the children brings new challenges and doubts.

The filmmaker accompanied the Schwörer family for seven years and documented how the Schwörers and their six children question conventional norms of upbringing, education, home, and security. Until a storm forces them to reconsider their life choices and family dynamics.
