Bruce Experiences: French Film Series: The Pursuit Of Endurance – On The Shoulders Of Shackleton, A Film By Bertrand Delapierre, Produced By Luc Hardy / Sagax Entertainment Co-Produced By Puzzle Media

In the heart of the Antarctic, nine adventurers are about to live an extraordinary story. They come from very different backgrounds, but one thing brings them together: a passion for adventure and testing the limits. Their goal: to follow in the footsteps of one of the greatest legends of the golden age of polar exploration: Ernest Shackleton. In 1914, after the sinking of his shipThe Endurance, this hero saved his entire crew from a certain death. 100 years later our expedition sets out to explore the sub-Antarctic islands of Elephant, South Georgia and the South Sandwich by boat, ski and pulka.

On board the Australis: an expedition leader, a veteran explorer, a former officer, a skipper, a polar guide, a scientist, two young soldiers and an athlete snowboarder. An expedition to remind us of the fragility of this highly endangered ecosystem, and to improve our understanding of these remote expanses.

With them, you will relive the best but also the most challenging moments of this great adventure.

Followed by a Q&A with Luc Hardy, Producer
