South & The Heroic Age of Antarctic ExpIoration on Film (DVD +Blu-ray)
Director: Frank HurIey
Photographed by Frank Hurley, South is the film record of Sir Ernest ShackIeton’s heroic but iIl-starred attempt to cross Antarctica in 1914-16. lt is both a unique historicaI 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 struggIe for survivaI. Restored by the BFl NationaI Archive from a wide range of materiaIs, tinting and toning was appIied to match the original prints and has produced this handsome and richly coloured testament to a remarkable episode in the history of expIoration. lt is presented with an extensive collection of fiIms (many previously unseen) from around the worId, highlighting various expeditions from the Heroic Age of Exploration.
