Februar 1945. Selv om sejren i Europa er tæt på, fortsætter krigen i Stillehavet. Ét af de mest blodige slag i krigen blev kampen om øen Iwo Jima, der kulminerede i det der for eftertiden blev det mest kendte krigsbillede i historien: Fem marinesoldater og en sygepasser, der sammen hjælpes ad med at hejse det amerikanske flag på Mount Suribachi. Det inspirerende foto blev et symbol på sejr for nationen, og de seks amerikanske mænd blev med det samme helte. Nogle af dem døde hurtigt efter flaget blev hejst, og nåede dermed aldrig at opfatte, at de var blevet udødeliggjorte af billedet. Men ingen af de overlevende mænd, der rejste flaget, var interesserede i at blive symboler eller helte. De ville bare kæmpe sammen med deres kammerater – de soldater, der kæmpede og døde uden fanfare eller hæder.

The vessel is Infinity, a 120-foot hand-built sailboat, crewed by a band of miscreants. The journey, an 8,000 mile Pacific crossing from New Zealand to Patagonia, with a stop in Antarctica. Unlike all the other boats heading to the Southern Ocean, Infinity is no ice-reinforced super-yacht crewed by professional sailors; rather, Infinity lives in the moment and sails on a whim. What can be found in abundance on board is blood, sweat, enthusiasm, risk tolerance, disdain for authority, and an ample supply of alcohol – all in all a mad voyage of reckless adventure just for the sheer joy of it. Along the way the crew will battle a hurricane of ice in the Ross Sea, assist the radical environmental group Sea Shepherd in their fight with illegal whalers, and tear every sail they have. At the heart of their journey is a quest for awe and a sense of wonder with the raw power of the natural world.

The South Pacific – the ocean between the American continent and Asia, stands for endless vastness, an infinite stretch of water and pristine nature. For many, the South Pacific is synonymous with paradise sun, beaches and of course, the bikini. But the bikini, or rather the island Bikini, also stands for a disastrous series of nuclear tests, carried out by the USA immediately after the Second World War. To this end, numerous ships of different sizes and categories were brought together. The remnants of these vessels have found a watery grave at the bottom of the lagoon: in depths of up to 60 metres, practically inaccessible for the average diver. Until recently, the region could not be visited for decades, due to radioactive contamination. But how have nature and mankind developed? Accompany us to a very special ships cemetery. Explore a region untouched by human hand for more than 60 years and experience the magic of the South Seas.
