"The North Water" follows a doomed whaling vessel in a floundering industry as it heads toward hunting waters near the arctic circle. Onboard Volunteer is a crew of outcasts and ne'er-do-wells. Henry Drax is the ship's harpooner, a violent psychopath known to rape and murder children. Sumner is a disgraced ex-army surgeon, in exile from the Seige of Dehli in India as the ship's doctor. The Captain is Brownlee, who lost his last ship and crew at sea, and is in secret consort with the Volunteer's owner to scuttle the boat on an insurance scam. The voyage soon becomes a collision course for these men and their depravity as they struggle against the harsh and frigid wasteland.

Directed by Andrew Haigh (45 Years), adapted from the novel by Ian McGuire
Release Date - July 15, 2021 on AMC+
