DEEPER: Exclusive Screening hosted by SURG

Hold your breath. Thai cave rescue hero Dr Richard “Harry” Harris takes on his most perilous adventure yet in Jennifer Peedom’s latest nail biter (Sherpa, Mountain, River).

In a remote part of New Zealand’s South Island, “Harry” and his fellow underwater obsessives set out to dive what could be the deepest-dived cave system in the world. Controversially, they plan to use hydrogen as a breathing gas – its explosive nature adding to the many hazards the close-knit team faces. As the 2019 Australian of the Year prepares to confront the dark waters and life-threatening cold, he questions the costs of his passion. Award winning director Peedom captures the tension, euphoria and mateship of this endeavour using Harris’s own vertigo-inducing cave footage, along with striking above-ground imagery and a compelling score.

“Invigorating … a different kind of courage is involved with undertaking such an experience willingly … Deeper captures that feeling, that emotion, that drive, perfectly.” – Screen Anarchy
