Breskell

Master wooden boat builder Olivier D. Huin is back with his crew of Arctic explorers, this time with a much bolder challenge. To take on the legendary Northwest Passages in his hand-built wooden boat; Breskell. In order to succeed the crew will have to brave 5,000 miles of Arctic storms, polar bears and a constantly moving maze of thick arctic sea ice. Despite 500 years of people trying, only a handful of wooden boats have ever successfully made the trip.

My take

Gripping expedition documentary that puts you on the edge of your seat. Watch a master craftsman and his crew push human limits against one of Earth's most unforgiving environments in a hand-built wooden boat. The kind of immersive adventure that demands your full attention.
