What South Is About
The documentary tells the story of Sir Ernest Shackleton's Antarctic expedition of 1914 to 1916. Frank Hurley, the expedition photographer, shot it: the camera was there while the ship was held fast in the ice, while the party waited out months on the floes, and when a small boat finally set off for help. The frames Hurley brought back are still counted among the most important visual records in the history of polar exploration. Released in 1919, it backed the survivors' accounts with images. Silent, slow and extraordinary for what was possible then.
