Fascinated by the idea of living under the oceans, the explorer Ghislain Bardout, inspired by Jules Verne’s Nautilus, invents “The Capsule”, an underwater habitat that he launches off Tahiti, in French Polynesia. One year after his immersion, we put on Ghislain’s diving mask for a journey through time that will make us live, in the present, the intimacy of a key moment in underwater exploration.
