    Synopsis
    Two years in the making, this documentary tells the extraordinary story of a lost arctic expedition. In 1845, Sir John Franklin set out to find a route to Asia through the arctic – the fabled Northwest Passage. The entire expedition vanished, something that had never happened before. Finding Franklin recounts a desperate tale of a ferocious struggle against death and the equally desperate struggle to find out what went wrong.
