South: Sir Ernest Shackleton’s Glorious Epic of the Antarctic
Frank Hurley with Sir Ernest Shackleton | UK | 1919 | 88m | U | In French with English subtitles
Considered the world’s first documentary feature, South is the original film – exquisitely photographed by Frank Hurley – of Sir Ernest Shackleton’s 1914 to 1916 Endurance expedition to Antarctica, during which the ship was crushed by ice, stranding the crew.
Notable for its stunningly dramatic images and the matter-of-fact way in which it deals with the actions of the explorer in the face of death, the film has been digitally remastered by BFI National Archive with a newly commissioned score by Neil Brand.
