The North Water
Those who journey here will find only themselves.
Created by Andrew Haigh
On AMC+
A bleak, violent psychological study of two damaged men—a psychopath and a haunted surgeon—trapped together in the Arctic, where survival becomes inseparable from moral reckoning.
Henry Drax is a harpooner and brutish killer whose amorality has been shaped to fit the harshness of his world, who will set sail on a whaling expedition to the Arctic with Patrick Sumner, a disgraced ex-army surgeon who signs up as the ship’s doctor. Hoping to escape the horrors of his past, Sumner finds himself on an ill-fated journey with a murderous psychopath. In search of redemption, his story becomes a harsh struggle for survival in the Arctic wasteland.
