De Barlovento a Sotavento (2019)

親の反対を押し切って海洋学校の訓練航海に参加する17歳のチャック。同世代の１１人の少年たちと船長を含む４人の大人を乗せた帆船アルバトロス号はやがて大海原へと出帆する。訓練中には様々な困難が起きるが、次第に仲間意識が出来てきた少年たちは船長の指揮の下、事態に対処していく。しかし、無事目的地にたどり着き、いざ帰還という段になって“白い嵐”と呼ばれる伝説の暴風雨がアルバトロス号を襲った。

The story of the 2008/2009 Vendée Globe race. 30 skippers embark on a quest to be the fastest to sail 27000 miles around the world, non stop, without assistance and alone on 60 foot sailboats. This is one of the most extreme challenges a human being can face. The sailors are alone at sea for months and physical and emotional strength are essential. Growlers (Icebergs), sea mammals, and massive waves are a constant danger. On any day the forces of nature can bring an end to the best sailor's well made plans. They harness the wind, hope for safe passage over the sea and push hard to win. They are a testament to the audacity of the human spirit.
