About Shipping the World
International trade has been ferried around the world via boat for centuries. If the business of shipping stopped tomorrow, half the world would starve, and the other half would freeze. A testament of humanity's will to tame the elements and expand our reach; shipping has pioneered new technologies, revolutionized the global economy and reshaped the world as we know it.
Directed by Andrew Southwell, Shipping the World leans on a strong ensemble — Don Battee — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2019.
