One of the most amazing and compelling adventure stories of all time, Ernest Shackleton's 1915 expedition to the forbidding, previously unexplored land of Antarctica has been a subject of great public fascination for decades. With 27 crew members, the intrepid man became trapped in the icy land after his ship, the Endurance, sank into the Weddell Sea. (official distributor synopsis)
