Endurance

We're delighted to bring this documentary to Dundee, home of the RRS Discovery, the ship that carried Shackleton on his first, and highly successful, journey to Antartica. 

Our screening will feature a special introduction by Chair of Dundee Heritage Trust, David Henry and  Director of the Discovery Ship, Ali Gellatly.

In a legendary feat of leadership and perseverance, 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. From National Geographic Documentary Films and directed by Chai Vasarhelyi, Jimmy Chin and Natalie Hewit (Vasarhelyi and Chin directed the Academy and BAFTA award winning and DCA hit, Free Solo ) , Endurance tells the inspiring stories of these two landmark expeditions, bound by their shared grit and determination.
