Sea Gypsies: The Far Side of the World

I found this movie by accident and I'm so happy I watched it. Between what they are able to accomplish with ingenuity and sheer will amazed me. It makes one realize how much can be achieved by working together.

Between the lack of money, the polar bears, the equipment, and the announcement that they will be eating vegan made me laugh and cry, and kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time.

Captain Clemens is multi talented leader and reminds us the only reason they can even attempt this dangerous journey is because of global warming.

When I started watching this, I thought it might be interesting but end up boring. The exact same opposite occurred. I started watching it. It was interesting and it got more and more and more interesting. There are so many interesting parts of this movie that it's hard to imagine. The boat itself is pretty amazing since it's Wood! All of these guys are kind of like teenage boys who never grow up. But the environment will blow you away because it definitely is something harsh. The one thing that you have to keep in mind is how the weather is constantly ready to terrorize them.

You're in an environment that definitely can kill you in a instantDefinitely a movie not to miss!

Loved this documentary. Look forward to feeling like a part of their crew. I've watched literally every sailing documentary available, and this one is by far my favorite. Just true sailors doing an incredible thing.

Absolutely brilliant. Very rarely levee reviews but I don't understand why this has soo few?! It's fantastic. Easy to watch. Really worth your time. Soo much better than the recent rock climbing documentaries etc... I get bored on those and think, hmmm maybe I should commit to a real film instead. I guarantee with this documentary type film, you will feel sucked in from 5 minutes until the very end.

Absolutely amazing, how this isn't trending I seriously don't know....

Please watch and thank me later.

If you're a fan of the ocean, sailing, first hand documentaries or Antarctic exploration and you haven't seen this film, YOU ARE MISSING OUT. Sea Gypsies is one of the most wholesome and genuine adventure/nature documentaries that I've ever had the privilege of seeing. Move over David Attenboro, Nico Edwards is a masterful film maker and commentator and each crew member brings their own brand of comedy, commentary, skill, and knowledge. With Captain Clem at the helm, Ayack fixing the sails, and even an appearance by David Bowie, this film is a unique opportunity to watch what can be best described as 'some dudes' take on one of the most challenging voyages of the modern age, in the most inhospitable area of the planet, with questionable equipment, just for the sheer joy of it. The great camera work and knowledgeable commentary is enriched with an amazing soundtrack featuring songs by Dirtwire and The Glitch Mob, making one really begin to feel the high's and low's of the passage, as if they are part of the voyage. This isn't your average adventure documentary. The presentation of content is much more gritty and realistic, adding a very human feeling. The crew of Infinity successfully inspire awe and provide you with a laugh, all while educating you on the most isolated place on Earth. Watching these men interact with the seas and Earth around them, and the respect and care they show to their environment is phenomenal and commendable. With its witty banter, great music, and breathtaking imagery, I cannot recommend this film highly enough!
