Full Plot Details

Six members of a North Atlantic fishing crew, whose boat has just sunk while out on a fishing trip, have managed to take refuge in two of the lifeboats, which they have tied together in their vow to stay together as they try to make their way back to safety. They have also managed to salvage many supplies, including some food and water, which falls to regimented Gib to ration according to Captain Gerald's timetable. With only a compass in hand and no sight of either land or other marine vessels, they can only guess where they are, which Gerald does, believing rightly or wrongly that at the speed and frequency they are rowing, they should hit land in six or seven days barring any unforeseen circumstances. For good or bad, Merv and "Young" Dickie further have each other emotionally as father and son, the devout Christian dad who is tough on his naive son, for who this trip is his first in his want to be a fishing boat captain his own right in the future. Despite their precarious situation, the mood among the six is relatively light. That mood is also despite the serious gash in the right arm of Mannie, the first mate, that wound which has the strong possibility of getting infected unless he gets some immediate professional medical attention. As their situation becomes more dire, the question becomes whether their solidarity will hold strong, especially with outspoken Pete among the group.

Movie Reviews

Globe and Mail - 8/10 by Simon HouptWho needs a Hollywood budget to make a haunting drama of men adrift at sea?
User Review - 10/10 by Jordan HAbsolutely wonderful movie. It's important not to go into it expecting flashy, fast-paced action like you see in a lot of oceanic survival movies. This movie exists to tell a story. The story of six men who represent every man lost at sea, fishing or not. Anyone who has any connection to the sea, whether it's through a family member, a friend or a childhood home needs to see this movie. It takes a certain kind of person to enjoy movies like this. It does not distract from the story with clear obstacles, high-budgeted effects or any unnecessary information. Despite that, it's far from lifeless. Shandi Mitchell captured a terrifying realism in her depictions of the open water and the characters surviving on top of it. The Disappeared takes you into a different head space, giving you plenty of time to pause and think. Like the characters, you are left reflecting on what is happening, and what that means for the future. The performances of the actors leave nothing left to be wanted, and Shawn Doyle took home the ACTRA award to prove it. Remove yourself from the space of Hollywood jumble. Let The Disappeared show you a real and awe-inspiring story that you can never forget.
User Review - 10/10 by Alan UEvery now and again, a film surprises you. The Disappeared does this. This is a very good movie. It is realistic to a fault and anyone familiar with the East Coast and the life of seafarers will be awestruck. The unfolding saga of six fishermen from a lost schooner takes place in two dories. The challenges, both physical and mental are spellbinding; from weather, thirst, hunger, fatigue, the disheartening feeling of being totally lost in an endless ocean⦠this is a breathtaking film. The relationships between the six men run through a roller coaster of raw emotions; camaraderie, loyalty, friendship⦠the characters are phenomenally well portrayed. This film just nails it. Strikingly realistic and one of the most intriguing endings I've ever seen.
User Review - 8/10 by Karen DA really great, quiet, subtle little Canadian film which won awards across the country. Emotional and thought provoking. A tribute to those lost and found at sea.
User Review - 8/10 by Simone MThe will to survive is breathtaking. Usually seen in war movies the will upon these men to survive is quite visual. well done
User Review - 6/10 by Roxanne CWell acted, riveting tale of six fishermen lost at sea. Little Canadian flick shot off Lunenberg, NS. Nothing happens in this short film but nothing has to. Would have given this a fourth star but I hated the ending although I guess it fits with the story.
User Review - 6/10 by Janis SOK, it was good. But not as exciting as the trailer makes it out to be. At times it really did lag, and nothing really happened. I chuckled a lot, but thought more story line needed to be uncovered.
User Review - 6/10 by Lee MNot compelling enough to recommend, but interesting enjoy to enjoy if you can appreciate the film as visual poetry.
User Review - 2/10 by Tay DThe movie was impossibly slow, with no plot. The writer obviously had no knowledge of sailing, which made every action of the crew mates stupid; from fighting the current when they rowed, to eating pineapple, getting drunk every night with no water supply, throwing bloody birds off the side of the side of their row boats. Their conversations rarely made sense. The movie started off in the middle of the ocean not bothering to show you their bonds, only the deteriation of them; and the end of the movie was them still rowing and then the screen fading black (not the most conclusive ending). All in all a total waste of 87mins and neither my mother not I would recommend this movie to our worst enemy.
User Review - 2/10 by Tyler ATuesday, September 9, 2014 (2012) The Disappeared DRAMA Entire movie taking place on a couple of row boats with paddles, three men on each boat tied to one another as viewers have to endure a whole hour and an a half of them arguing without a compass, and no food rationing as they're struggling to be found. Boring as heck, and to be honest left myself with more questions than answers, such as the time it happened. "The surviving crew of a sunken fishing boat avoids a watery death in the North Atlantic by escaping in a pair of barges, and attempts to row for shore while battling hunger, thirst, exhaustion, and injury" RT 1 star out of 4
