Anders Baasmo (Kon-Tiki, Munch) and Tobias Santelmann (THE LAST KINGDOM) lead a stellar ensemble in naval epic THE ARCTIC CONVOY, based on the incredible story of the real-life mission on the Arctic naval front during World War II. In 1942, Hitler's war machine seems unstoppable as the Germans invade the Soviet Union. To prevent further losses, the Allies are forced to assist to get supplies to Russia’s eastern front. A convoy of civilian cargo ships are filled with war materials and begin the perilous journey to Russia’s ports Murmansk and Arkhangelsk. Caught at sea without defence or war experience, a motley group of civilian sailors led by steadfast Captain Martin Skar (Baasmo) and his First Mate Oliver Mørk (Santelmann) come face to face with the superior German force in the brutal, icy Arctic Sea. With lives at stake, courage becomes their only lifeline. Directed by Henrik M. Dahlsbakken (MUNCH), this large-scale nautical drama from the producers of disaster successes THE NORTH SEA and THE WAVE explores themes of duty, sacrifice, unity and trust.
