The film is set entirely on a lifeboat launched from a freighter torpedoed and sunk by a Nazi U-boat.

How to watch it together from different places
Each of you opens Lifeboat on your own account. Herae keeps the two players in sync, so a pause or a skip happens for both of you, and puts a video call in the corner of the film so you can see each other react.
