The true story upon which Herman Melville's classic novel 'Moby Dick' was based. This is the story of the whaler Essex and surviving sailors after their ship was destroyed by a sperm whale.
On November 20, 1820, a mammoth 85-foot whale viciously and repeatedly rams the Essex, sinking the hopelessly battered ship. The already exhausted crew of whale hunters is now the hunted. The gripping true story man's courage vs. the forces of nature at sea is even more heart-pounding and dramatic than the classic Herman Melville novel it inspired.
The recovery of a notebook written by the Essex's cabin boy Thomas Nickerson provides viewers a true firsthand account of the amazing escape of the fortunate few. The startling reality of the epic struggle for survival is brought to life by leading-edge Computer Generated Imaging and elaborate re-enactments.
Trapped in their pummeled boats for 90 storm-tossed days, the dwindling crew is stranded about as far from land as it is possible to be anywhere on Earth. Enduring starvation, madness, and the most gruesome tests of the human spirit, they revert to the most primitive instinct - SURVIVAL.
Using computer effects and detailed re-enactments, this film weaves together the manuscripts, letters, newspaper accounts, logs and maps of the time to build the drama of the Essex and the heroic efforts of the men who sailed her.
