The GREAT
WHITE WHALE
Sunday 4 May 2025
Deep in the wild Southern Ocean, halfway between Australia and South Africa, a snowy volcano nine thousand feet high rears up from the sea like a great white whale.
Five times it tried to kill the first team that attempted to climb it. Yet in 1964 back they sailed, through the worst seas in the world to try again.
It's one of the least known yet most audacious Australian adventures of the 20th century.
Join us on those first attempts to climb Big Ben, the smoking glacier ringed volcano on Heard Island - Australia’s loneliest, most remote outpost. It’s a tale told with quirky humour by those who were there, backed up with their beautifully shot archival footage.
“Gripping, edge of the seat stuff.” "An absolute triumph. I found the film incredibly powerful.” “Heart stopping. Funny. A ripping yarn!”
Rated PG.
