Synopsis

In this unprecedented motion picture event, Academy Award winning director and master storyteller James Cameron travels back to the site of his greatest inspiration - the legendary wreck of the Titanic. With a team of marine experts and historians, Cameron and his friend Bill Paxton embark on an unscripted journey to the final grave where nearly 1,500 souls lost their lives almost a century ago.

Using state-of-the-art technology developed expressly for this expedition, Cameron and his crew explore virtually the entire ship, inside and out, as never before. The advanced 3-D technology will allow audiences to experience the journey as if they are part of the dive team, travelling deep below the surface of the ocean and far inside the ghostly shipwreck.

Made especially for IMAX 3-D Theatres and specially outfitted 35mm 3-D theaters across the country, Cameron and his team discover amazing images and artifacts that have remained hidden from explorers for over 90 years and then use those images as a doorway into history. More than any other shipwreck, Titanic continues to intrigue and fascinate the public. And the more Cameron discovers, the more intriguing this legendary wreck becomes.
