The Poseidon Project (2013)

흥미로운 사실

The Poseidon Project is a 2013 documentary film about the search for the lost Royal Navy submarine HMS Poseidon. The submarine sank after a collision off the coast of China in 1931. Outside of China, it was widely assumed to still be present in the Bohai Sea, 20 miles off the city of Weihai in China's Shandong Province until American author and scuba diver Steven Schwankert discovered that she had been salvaged by a Chinese salvage team in 1972. Schwankert's work and the history of the submarine and its crew is the subject of The Poseidon Project. The film was directed by British brothers Arthur Jones and Luther Jones.

Production

Arthur Jones and Luther Jones shot the first scenes of The Poseidon Project in Weihai, China in early 2009. Several return trips to Weihai ensued as Steven Schwankert came closer to discovering the fate of HMS Poseidon, and the location of the British cemetery that was originally located off the coast on Liugong Island. In China, other filming took place in Beijing and Shanghai.

Further scenes were shot in the UK, specifically at Gosport's Royal Navy Submarine Museum, at the Dock Museum in Barrow-in-Furness, at the National Archives in Kew, London, and in and around south London, where the grave of Poseidon escapee Patrick Willis was assumed to be located.

Postproduction took place during 2012 and early 2013. The Poseidon Project premiered at the Hoboken International Film Festival on 3 June 2013.
