A short film full of torpedo boat action. Follow T56 and her sisters on a journey through the Stockholm archipelago. These boats makes people clapping hands and some angry because the noise and smoke. Built in the 40s and the 50s and restored back to original makes them unique in the world to actually be fully functional even in 2022.
