Dangerous Films for BBC

The sinking of the Titanic was the biggest maritime disaster in history and continues to fascinate as the 100 year anniversary approaches.

Now, for the first time, this dramatised documentary shows what happened from the point of view of the killer itself: the water. This was a massacre – 1,517 passengers and crew died when the luxury liner went down. Everybody on board was fooled by the water, a devious and unstoppable killer. Sometimes it crept unseen, at other times it roared. One minute it was hidden, the next it was everywhere.

Stories are told through action-led reconstruction of eyewitness reports, drama interviews based on transcripts, and the highest quality effects, including the sounds those on board would have heard as the sea surged through the ship. By following the water, this compelling film reveals exactly how the Titanic sank.
