Made for TV movie (true story) about a capsized trimaran yacht and how it's crew survived for over 100 days. Well done and reasonably accurate about the sailing offshore in a performance multi-hull. Unlike most disaster / redemption films this one obviously was done by people who knew their topic.
I enjoyed this film as unlike most it made me feel they did not dumb down the content assuming everyone watching could not truly understand the situation. As a sailor I found this film quite realistic.
I feel the actors did a good job of representing the people in the crisis and they avoided overacting with restraint.
I'd heard about this situation and the controversy, so seeing the film added a lot of context to news from the other side of the world.
