Shackleton: The Greatest Story of Survival (2023)

Human spirit

An epic story of the power to survive against the greatest odds. Brutal earth versus the human spirit. If this was a Hollywood movie I'd believe it science fiction. The hands on presenter takes you on the journey 100 years from its origin. He has previously recreated elements of the journey using traditional materials, including equipment and clothing, so demonstrating his investment and admiration for Shackleton and his men. He encounters the topical issue of climate change, and this conveys additional messaging to the viewer. A truly inspiring and movitional watch. I cannot recommend enough. A must see.
