Winner of the Best Documentary award at Rome Film Festival and an audience favorite at the 2007 Telluride Film Festival, Deep Water is the remarkable, true story of the first solo, non-stop, round-the-world boat race, and the psychological toll it took on its competitors. In 1968 the Sunday Times of London sponsored the much-ballyhooed event which attracted a field of nine, including amateur sailor Donald Crowhurst. Battling treacherous seas and his own demons, Crowhurst almost immediately comes apart as he faces the isolation of nine months on the high seas. Part adventure yarn and part metaphysical mystery, this documentary from IFC Films is an unforgettable journey into one man’s heart of darkness.
