About Deep Water

DEEP WATER recounts the astonishing true story of Donald Crowhurst's ill-fated voyage. An amateur yachtsman, Crowhurst ambitiously entered the 1968 Golden Globe Race, a pioneering challenge to circumnavigate the world solo, non-stop. Faced with mounting pressure, a failing boat, and the daunting reality of his inexperience, Crowhurst made a fateful decision: to fake his journey. The documentary meticulously pieces together Crowhurst's elaborate deception, his increasingly fragile mental state, and the tragic consequences that ultimately unfolded in the vast expanse of the ocean. It's a compelling exploration of ambition, delusion, and the crushing weight of expectation. The film is an intense and emotional journey into the mind of a man driven to extremes.

How to stream with ExpressVPN

A VPN (Virtual Private Network) is an app that encrypts your internet connection and masks your IP address, allowing you to stream securely and bypass restrictions.

Why Use a VPN for Streaming?
