Kon-Tiki
The Amazing Adventure Of Six Men On A Raft Across The Pacific! True! Thrilling!
Directed by Thor Heyerdahl
Produced by Syncron-film AS, SF Studios
A thrilling documentary chronicle of an audacious 101-day ocean voyage designed to test a bold anthropological theory, balancing scientific inquiry with the raw drama of survival at sea.
"Kon-Tiki" was the name of a wooden raft used by six Scandinavian scientists, led by Thor Heyerdahl, to make a 101-day journey from South America to the Polynesian Islands. The purpose of the expedition was to prove Heyerdal's theory that the Polynesian Islands were populated from the east- specifically Peru- rather than from the west (Asia) as had been the theory for hundreds of years. Heyerdahl made a study of the winds and tides in the Pacific, and by simulating conditions as closely as possible to those he theorized the Peruvians encountered, set out on the voyage.
