The Inner Harbor dives deep into the lives of dockworkers in Gothenburg, capturing their grit and resilience against the backdrop of an evolving shipping industry. Christoffer von Platen's direction feels raw, almost journalistic, allowing the workers' voices to resonate in a way that feels very personal. The pacing is contemplative, giving you time to absorb the atmosphere of the docks, with its blend of hard labor and camaraderie. There's something distinct about its focus on the human side of industry, rather than just the mechanics of shipping. Practical effects are essentially non-existent in this documentary, but the real performances come from the dockworkers themselves, who share their hopes and fears with honesty. It’s a snapshot of a time and place, more about the people than the machines.
