В 1594-1597 годах Баренц совершил три экспедиции в Арктику для поиска Северо-Восточного прохода в Тихий океан, открыв и описав берега Новой Земли. Во время последнего плавания корабль Баренца затёрло во льдах, и команде пришлось остаться на зимовку в условиях полярной ночи на побережье архипелага. Многие члены команды, в их числе сам Баренц, не выдержали лишений арктической зимы и погибли. Об этом путешествии повествует дневник одного из членов команды — Херрита де Фейра. Дневники де Фейра сегодня воспринимаются как источник научного материала, а голландские дети изучают историю мореплавания Баренца по гравюрам из дневника моряка.

It takes him to a confrontation with his biological father who was supposed dead, but appears to live in Ireland and does not immediately press his lost son in his arms. Kilkenny Cross is a coming-of-age drama, in which the Dutch urban water landscape contrasts with the green hills of Ireland and the impassiveness of modern means of communication with the longing for human intimacy. A chat session between mother and son leads to an emotional climax. In a cameo role, female novelist Manon Uphoff explains what true love means.
