After Alondra struck Kedge Rock, 16 of her crew were able to get aboard one of the ship's lifeboats, but they drowned before they could reach safety.

The film was made in collaboration with the RNLI and the Baltimore Drama Group, and featured Pat Flaherty, Tadhg Collins, Michael Walsh, Cornie Bohane, Rupert Stutchbury, and Bernie O’Driscoll.
