Why watch this film?
Without a license to sail, without a boat and almost no experience, Ramón Carlín triumphed in one of the most dangerous and demanding sailing races in history. Rookie director Bernardo Arsuaga does a good job of piecing together all the necessary elements for 'The Weekend Sailor' to be not just a convincing film, but also decidedly human. A mix of interviews with directors, along with photos and videos taken before and during the race, puts us right in the middle of the drama. The documentary is an encouraging example of what can happen when you believe in yourself and your dreams, perfect for those looking for an entertaining and enjoyable story with a cast of colorful characters and a happy ending.
