A rainy day in a pub by the sea. The rain is getting heavier, the waves are getting bigger. Pete, a lonely traveller, takes shelter in the pub, where he meets Mikka, the headstrong landlord. They are joined by Bjorn, a stubborn fisherman, and Lara and Max, a young couple whose relationship is on the brink of collapse. Soon the storm traps them in the pub and they must find a way to survive the night.
A Storm Louder than Everyone Else pits five individuals against what could be the end of their lives. Either the storm will kill them – or they will kill each other. Trapped in a small space, they have no choice but to explore how they feel about each other.
As Satre put it: Hell, these are other people. But they could also be our salvation.
