'Are you up for the voyage?'

Adapted and directed by Toby Hulse

Far beneath the surface of the sea glides the submarine, Nautilus, commanded by the enigmatic Nemo.  But is the mysterious captain an eco-warrior or a twisted madman?  Could he even be both?

Featuring lost underwater cities, ferocious sharks, and a terrifying giant squid, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea is a rip-roaring adventure for all the family, inspired by Jules Verne’s science-fiction masterpiece.
