Description: |
A boy works in the dockyard where the Titanic is being built, then gets a job on the ship. As he witnesses a series of mistakes, short-cuts and bad decisions, he becomes more and more worried about what could happen to the ship. But he's preoccupied by his rivalry with a fellow ship's boy... |
Synopsis: |
Fascinating fictional retelling of the events that led to the tragedy of the Titanic, based on documents from the National Archives. A Belfast boy is terrified of getting a job in the dockyard where the Titanic is being built, and where his father died. Instead he gets a job on the ship, where he thinks his biggest problem is his rivalry with a fellow ship's boy who calls him a coward. On the night the unsinkable ship meets the iceberg, he must find out how brave he really is. |
