Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl’s legendary voyage from Peru to Polynesia in 1947 remains the kind of grand adventure that a modern generation can only dream about. This stirring, Oscar-nominated epic tells the true tale with style and breathtaking cinematography. When nobody accepted his theory that South American settlers were the first in Polynesia, the academic set out to prove his critics wrong by assembling a crew, building a raft and sailing the Pacific Ocean in the exact manner of any initial expeditions. A gloriously thrilling, old-fashioned yarn.
