The star of the show, Barba, is resting in port waiting for warmer weather with essential upgrades and maintenance in progress. Her humble servants have lately been working with the storytelling side of things. The hope is that we can take the step up from short stories to making our first proper documentary. It´s a monumental task, and it requires somewhat more than the usual key ingredients, persistence, bone-chilling and hard work.
The interest for the project itself has been quite impressive so far. Amongst others BBC World News, GoPro, the CNN Great Big Story (as shown above) featuring some of the footage. More to come.
