Behind the Scenes of All is Lost

Robert Redford and writer/director J.C. Chandor take viewers behind the scenes into the shooting of All is Lost, a one-man movie featuring Redford stranded alone at sea with the odds of his survival stacked against him. Lionsgate & Roadside Attractions are releasing the dramatic thriller in theaters on October 18, 2013.
 
The Plot:
 
Deep into a solo voyage in the Indian Ocean, an unnamed man (Redford) wakes to find his 39-foot yacht taking on water after a collision with a shipping container left floating on the high seas. With his navigation equipment and radio disabled, the man sails unknowingly into the path of a violent storm. Despite his success in patching the breached hull, his mariner’s intuition, and a strength that belies his age, the man barely survives the tempest.
 
Using only a sextant and nautical maps to chart his progress, he is forced to rely on ocean currents to carry him into a shipping lane in hopes of hailing a passing vessel. But with the sun unrelenting, sharks circling and his meager supplies dwindling, the ever-resourceful sailor soon finds himself staring his mortality in the face.
