About “Hell of a Cruise”
In January 2020, Carnival Cruise Line’s Diamond Princess cruise ship was quarantined at sea after a passenger tested positive for the virus, before many people knew what it even was. The documentary, directed by Nick Quested, follows the “two-week, claustrophobic nightmare” that took place while the boat was docked in Yokohama, Japan. The film also asks why Carnival allowed more ships to take off following the Diamond Princess’ medical emergency.

Peels back the curtain on the two-week, claustrophobic nightmare when passengers and crew members boarded the luxury Diamond Princess cruise ship in January of 2020, they had no idea that the deadly novel coronavirus boarded the ship with them, turning the floating paradise into their worst nightmare.
The 120-minute film features never-before-seen self-shot footage by the passengers, as well as interviews, and an examination of what exactly went wrong for the Diamond Princess. “Hell of a Cruise” is one of several documentaries debuting this fall on Peacock.
