 "FLYING CLIPPER"
is a monumental documentary about the adventures of a Swedish sailing ship,
which travels into the Mediterranean in the early 1960s. The trip takes you
to the dream destinations of the old world: from the Côte d'Azur, the Greek
islands, to the pyramids of Egypt. Photographed in 1962 with specially
designed 70mm cameras,

German film produced in this high-resolution large format. The spectacular
photography of the Formula 1 race in Monaco or aboard the aircraft carrier

visual experience.Scanned in 4K from an original new 70mm print and digitally high-quality restored, "FLYING CLIPPER" now unfolds in the home cinema with the same brilliance as at the time on the cinema screen.
