  • The heroine of Catherine Poulain's autobiographical novel Le Grand Marin, Lili recounts the struggles of these fisherwomen and all those who fight to stay on board and cross borders.

    It's the story of a free woman who leaves everything behind, from boredom to resignation. She goes fishing at the end of the world, in Alaska, "The Last Frontier", to face the elements, giant fish, but also pain, fear and prejudice. Adopted by a longliner named Le Rebel, she fished for black cod and halibut in extreme conditions, battling with the great ocean, its salt, its cold, pushing her limits ever further in this man's world. She embraces adventure body and soul, even to the point of death.
    In this relentless fight for her freedom, she observes with a keen eye the slightly mad world of the sailors of the Far North, these invisible men, often ravaged by life, passionate about the ocean that constantly calls them back, sometimes to the point of engulfing them.
    Four actresses take up their stories and, under Catherine Poulain's sensitive pen, become Great Sailors before our very eyes.
