About the Film
Deep Water is the stunning true story of the first solo, non-stop, around-the-world boat race, and the psychological toll it took on its competitors. Sponsored by the Sunday Times of London, the event attracted a field of nine, including amateur sailor Donald Crowhurst, who set out to circumnavigate the globe in late 1968. Battling treacherous seas and his own demons, Crowhurst almost immediately comes apart as he faces the isolation of nine months on the high seas. Part adventure yarn and part metaphysical mystery, Deep Water is an unforgettable story about one man’s amazing efforts to explore the limits of human endurance.
