At the height of last summer's tragic exodus of ' boat people' from Vietnam, an American Christian charity chartered a ship to cruise the South China Sea. The ship carried food and medicine to re-supply the refugees at sea, but had undertaken not to take boat People aboard, because no neighbouring country would allow them to land.
Only a few days after setting sail the charity ship encountered a refugee boat in which 93 Vietnamese had been drifting for eight days. An Everyman crew aboard the ship filmed the entire voyage, climaxing in the dramatic mid-sea rescue which saved 93 lives.
