NORTHERN VENTURE

For the first time, award-winning filmmaker Daryl Granger steps aboard the Great Lakes freighter Northern Venture for a one-week voyage across four of the five Great Lakes. Leaving behind the familiarity of land, he experiences firsthand the immense scale, beauty, and isolation of North America’s inland seas. From the towering Soo Locks to the engineering marvel of the Welland and Canal, the voyage reveals the skill and professionalism found on working freighters on the Great Lakes.
