After Gustaf Enoksson has been at sea for 30 years, strong emotions are aroused when he meets Juana Lazcano in the Argentine coastal town of San Julián. He decides to go ashore and work as a lighthouse keeper at the El Chico del la Capa lighthouse outside the city.
Businessman Roberto Marcos, who lives in San Julián, has made a fortune from shady dealings, but lately he has got huge debts and needs to cash in. He plans to let one of his cargo ships go to the bottom and collect insurance money, by turning off the lighthouse where Gustaf works, at the right time. By funding some modernizations, he gains access to the lighthouse and can rig it to go out an hour before the ship arrives. So that no one can light it again, he blocks the floors up to the lighthouse but places clues for himself in different places in the lighthouse in order to quickly light the lighthouse again so that no suspicion falls on him.
In the fall of 1968, Gustaf gets a well-deserved vacation at the same time as a deep low pressure with associated storm winds is approaching. Roberto Marcos sees his chance to put the plan into action.
One of Roberto Marco’s cronies thinks his boss has crossed the line, and gives you the scoop information about what will happen. You bring some friends with you to prevent the disaster but you are in a hurry! The ship is approaching and in an hour it will be smashed against the sharp rocks of the coast. Can you light the lighthouse before it’s too late?
