About This Movie
"Shackleton's Antarctic Adventure" is a giant-screen film that tells the extraordinary true story of polar explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton's now-legendary 1914-1916 British Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition. While never accomplishing its goal of the first crossing of the Antarctic continent, this expedition has become a larger-than-life testament to heroism and human endurance, with all 28 men surviving nearly two years in the barren, frigid Antarctic when their ship, Endurance, was caught in pack ice and eventually crushed. In October-November 1999 and April 2000, the film's production team undertook two expeditions to the Antarctic, capturing stunning images as they retraced and re-created the journey of Shackleton and the crew of the Endurance.

Shackleton's Antarctic Adventure
Comment by: Shilo Urban
This is the most amazing story ever. Everyone should know the incredible tale of Shackleton and The Endurance. It is mind blowing.
Down in New Zealand where they call Antarctica "the ice," in the Auckland museum there is a recreation of Shackleton's quarters, of the place where they all lived, er...survived. It was really interesting to see the amount of scientific gear and other stuff they were carting around- of course, thankfully they had film gear and video, so we today have documentation of their story. An amazing testament to the strengths and weaknesses of humankind.
