Lærke grows up with a famous surname and a family in perpetual motion.
She has nine step-siblings and half-siblings, but feels mostly like an only child. Her father sails the seven seas and takes up a lot of space, even though he is hardly present in Lærke's life.
Her mother moves into a women's collective in a small village in Thy and later moves in with a new man. The young Lærke can find her feet neither in provincial youth life nor in her father's extended family of noisy adventurers. It is only when she moves to Copenhagen that she lands in a life that feels like her own.
Through a series of cross-cuts between childhood and adulthood, the North Sea and the big city, perception and reflection, Sømærke paints a tender and sober portrait of a generation. A strong and moving coming-of-age story about restlessness and the longing to find a foothold. And about daring to encounter deep, lasting love when you have grown up with the ideal of stormy and fleeting infatuation.
