The SS Atlantic wrecked on the rocks of Lower Prospect in Halifax, Nova Scotia in 1873. The story is nearly forgotten. We do our best to tell the story of the sinking, the worst disaster on the North Atlantic in the 1800’s, and the first disaster for the White Star Line. This was made in cooperation with the SS Atlantic Heritage Park Society and the Titanic Society of Atlantic Canada. Written and Directed by Thomas Lynskey Narrated by Thomas Lynskey Camera
