Official Trailer for ‘Endurance’ Doc About Shackleton’s Sunken Ship

“Why we go, I cannot say…” National Geographic has revealed their official trailer for a documentary film called Endurance, the latest creation from the adventure doc duo E. Chai Vasarhelyi & Jimmy Chin (Free Solo, The Rescue, Wild Life, Nyad). However, they seem to be attached to have their names onboard, as it is also co-directed by the British doc filmmaker Natalie Hewit. In a legendary feat of leadership and perseverance, iconic polar explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton kept his crew of 27 men alive for over a year despite the loss of their ship in frigid pack ice. Over a century later, a team of modern-day explorers sets out to find the sunken ship. The Maritime Heritage Trust located his shipwrecked Endurance near Antarctica in 1915. Endurance tells the inspiring stories of two landmark expeditions – both bound by their shared grit & determination. Following its world premiere at the 2024 London Film Festival, National Geographic Doc Films will begin streaming this doc (on Disney+) starting in early November. These kind of discovery stories always intrigue me, following people doing things that no one else is doing out there. I’ve have to watch this. // Continue Reading ›
