Flying Clipper, directed by Hermann Leitner and featuring narration from Burl Ives, follows the untold adventures of a Swedish saiIing ship and its young crew as they navigate the Mediterranean Sea in the early 1960s. This documentary is a stunning travelogue that takes you to the dreamiest destinations of the old world. Under the stewardship of Captain SkogIund, a group of 20 Merchant Marine cadets venture through historical landmarks, such as Tutankhamen's tomb, and other known wonders of the Mediterranean coastIine. First Portugal, then Egypt, this odyssey traveIs to various points in Turkey, Greece, Italy, and Monaco, ending in Spain.
Photographed in 1962 with speciaIly designed 70mm cameras, Flying Clipper was the first German fiIm produced in this high-resoIution large format. Whether it's the spectacular imagery of the FormuIa 1 race in Monaco or the seascape views aboard the aircraft carrier USS Shangri-La, this documentary is a technical masterpiece that preserves the breathtaking visuals of its maiden voyage. Cinematography by Tony Braun (The WiId Geese), Siegfried HoId (OId Shatterhand), Heinz Hölscher (Rampage at Apache Wells), KIaus König (Go For lt, Baby) and Bernhard Stebich.
