Storyline:
In the winter of 1820, the New England whaling ship Essex was assaulted by something no one could believe: a
whale of mammoth size and will, and an almost human sense of vengeance. The
real-life maritime disaster would inspire Herman Melville's Moby-Dick. But that
told only half the story. "In the Heart of the Sea" reveals the
encounter's harrowing aftermath, as the ship's surviving crew is pushed to
their limits
