Moby Dick

Der faszinierende Klassiker. Die packende Geschichte vom archaischen Kampf zwischen Mann und Wal! - Neuengland, Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts. Der junge Abenteurer Ishmael heuert auf einem Walfänger an. Die Mannschaft ist ein zusammengewürfelter Haufen rauer Männer unter dem Kommando des mysteriösen Kapitäns Ahab. Schon bald stell sich heraus, dass die Jagd nur einem Einzigen gilt: Ahabs Todfeind - Moby Dick, dem weißen Wal. Getrieben von maßlosem Hass und dem Verlangen nach Rache beginnt der Kapitän den Kampf um Leben und Tod.

The sole survivor of a lost whaling ship relates the tale of his Captain's self-destructive obsession to hunt the white whale, Moby Dick.

Dans cette adaptation télévisuelle du roman de Herman Melville, on retrouve Patrick Stewart dans le rôle du capitaine Achab.

O único sobrevivente de um navio baleeiro perdido relata a história da obsessão autodestrutiva de seu capitão para caçar a baleia branca Moby Dick.

El joven Ismael llega una tormentosa noche de invierno a Nantucket dispuesto a enrolarse en un barco ballenero. Su afán de aventuras lo ha llevado a abandonar su trabajo como maestro de escuela. En el puerto conoce a un personaje de imponente aspecto que resulta ser un amable arponero maorí llamado Queequeg. Cuando ambos se enteran de que el capitán Ahab está reclutando una nueva tripulación, deciden unirse a él.
