Sea Gypsies, The

VHS, 101 minutes, WARNER

A thrilling adventure tests a family's courage, strength and love. Five exhausted castaways struggle out of the icy Pacific onto a remote Aleutian island. These are "The Sea Gypsies," amateur explorers whose around-the-world journey becomes a harrowing and heart-warming survival story. Filled with all the adventure and charm that are the hallmarks of a Disney-style classic, "The Sea Gypsies" is an exciting movie the whole family can enjoy together. Faced with the constant quest for food (with the women proving to be the better hunters), frightened by the grim discovery of a skeleton and an old diary warning of an unnamed menace on the island, and harassed by run-ins with a Kodiak bear, a killer whale, wolf packs and a wild dog, the family must forge new bonds of love and respect in order to survive. When the Alaskan winter threatens to close in, the shipwrecked become shipbuilders, racing to build a makeshift escape craft before it's too late. Created by the father-and-son production team who filmed the breathtaking nature tales "The Adventures Of The Wilderness Family" and "Across The Great Divide," "The Sea Gypsies," shot on location in the towering landscapes of Alaska and Northern Canada, brings you the beauty and danger of nature in a way that's sure to enthrall old and young alike. So gather your entire family for a voyage into adventure. Set sail with "The Sea Gypsies!".
