Description
Written based on the remarkable true story of the ship Carpathia and its legendary captain, who responded to the distress call of the sinking Titanic. Shortly after midnight on April 14-15, 1912, Captain Arthur Rostron of the Carpathia is awakened and receives a report that the Titanic is sending out a distress signal after hitting an iceberg during its maiden voyage. Despite the lack of information, Rostron immediately begins to act, determined to respond to the call for help. However, the Carpathia is more than four hours away from the disaster site. The questions keep piling up, but there are no answers. Will his ship hold together when subjected to unprecedented speed? What if it also hits an iceberg? And will there even be any survivors at the scene in such freezing cold when the Carpathia arrives? Kate Connolly is a third-class passenger on the Titanic. After the ship hits the iceberg, she is one of the last people to receive instructions and help. Despite the chaos of leaving the ship, Kate manages to get into a lifeboat. But as she witnesses the Titanic disappearing into the abyss and hears the cries of hundreds of people still in the water, she wonders if any rescue is even possible.
