Despite facing opposition from the male members of her community, Barbro proves to be a skilled fisherman and a savvy businesswoman. She takes risks and makes bold decisions, which often put her at odds with the conservative values of her village.Along the way, Barbro meets several men who are attracted to her strength and independence. However, she is not interested in settling down and getting married.
