28 lost adventurers must fight for their lives after their only lifeline is destroyed in the most uninhabitable place on Earth – Antarctica. ‘Shackleton: The Greatest Story of Survival’ reveals the story of polar explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton and the crew of Endurance, told by the only person ever to have repeated their incredible feat – explorer and adventurer Tim Jarvis.
Q&A after screening with Antarctic explorer Peter Bland
Peter found himself in a similar predicament as Shackleton and his men when in 2001, Peter and his team mate were stranded on the exact same ice flows on the Eastern side of the Antarctic Peninsula. They drew from Shackleton's lessons in order to get safely home.
