Styx (I) (2018)
7/10
I'd like to see more about the coast guard's POV as it depicts them as somewhat cold and cruel

(2018) Styx DOCU DRAMA

Co-written and directed by Wolfgang Fischer directing a no plot movie, but showcases qualified doctorate Rike (Susanne Wolff) at the opening looks after a car crash victim, before on the following day she puts together what appears to be pre-planned sailing voyage toward the Ascension Island . Like the other sailing movie from 2013 "All Is Lost" starring Robert Redford, much of this movie showcases Rike doing things what one does on a "Asa Gray" sail boat which is to navigate and operate it, all is well until she stumbles onto refugees stranded on a boat after the 34 minute mark and is in conflict with coast guard or coast guards around the area in terms of what she is allowed to do and what she can do. While she is being instructed not to go near the assumed sinking ship with many refugees stranded, at the same time she does not want to stand there and do nothing. I do not know if that is what any average coast guard response would do if it's anyone who is on a life and death situation as it is depicted here, or is it just plain racism.
