When they're expelled from school for activism directly challenging the socialist state in East Germany, they end up doing factory work.

The choice to risk imprisonment or death by escaping to the democratic West seems like a risk worth taking. They set out to swim twenty-five hours across the choppy waters of the Baltic Sea.Linke's storytelling achieves a delicate balance between heightened moments of danger--searchlights, jellyfish, a Russian helicopter, a violent summer storm--and the monotony, ineffable fatigue, physical pain and cramping, fear, and hope that fill the rest of the journey.
