Misplaced Pages

Ghosts of the Sea (French: Les Enfants du large) is a Canadian-French multimedia book and documentary film project by Virginia Tangvald, released in 2024. The book and the film both centre on her search for more information and understanding about her father, Norwegian adventurer Peter Tangvald, and her brother, Thomas Tangvald, who both died in separate shipwreck incidents in 1991 and 2014.

The book was published in September, while the film premiered in the National Competition at the 2024 Festival du nouveau cinéma.

At FNC, the film won the TV5 Audience Award.
