En la costa norte de Noruega, Ingrid Barrøy nace en una pequeña isla que lleva su apellido. En la primera mitad del siglo XX, la vida de los pescadores-labriegos del archipiélago es una lucha constante por la supervivencia. La familia Barrøy, sin embargo, posee la determinación y las habilidades necesarias para prosperar. El padre de Ingrid sueña con una isla más grande y una vida diferente, anhelando construir un muelle que los conecte con el continente, aunque esto tenga un precio. Ingrid crece en este entorno, enfrentándose al mar, las tormentas, los pájaros y el horizonte. Sin embargo, el ciclo de las estaciones se ve interrumpido por la guerra y el contacto con el mundo exterior, marcando el despertar de Noruega a un mundo más grande y moderno. Cuando la tragedia golpea a la familia, Ingrid debe luchar para proteger el hogar en el que ha crecido.
