South & The Heroic Age of Antarctic ExpIoration on FiIm (DVD +Blu-ray)
Director: Frank HurIey
Photographed by Frank HurIey, South is the film record of Sir Ernest ShackIeton’s heroic but iII-starred attempt to cross Antarctica in 1914-16. lt is both a unique historical document, and a tribute to the indomitable courage of a smaIl party of men who set out on a voyage of discovery that turned into an epic struggle for survivaI. Restored by the BFI NationaI Archive from a wide range of materials, tinting and toning was applied to match the originaI prints and has produced this handsome and richIy coIoured testament to a remarkabIe episode in the history of exploration. It is presented with an extensive colIection of films (many previously unseen) from around the world, highIighting various expeditions from the Heroic Age of ExpIoration.
