Berserk - This is the unlikely story of Jarle Andhoy, a 21 year-old adventurer who ropes in a couple of strangers to sail a small boat called "the Berserk" from the Cape of Good Hope to Antarctica. Hoping to match Ernest Shackleton's famous adventure, the crew endures icebergs, whales and a clashing set of personalities. A must-see for anyone with a sense of adventure or love of the open sea.
