An exhilarating comic adaptation of the masterpiece of American literature, driven by the whims of the wind and human passions. Herman Melville, once a sailor himself, drew inspiration from true events for his novel "Moby Dick," which has become a classic of world literature, and created a new myth with the white whale that has etched itself into human memory. In the style of a parable, it tells the grim, mystical, and desperate quest of Captain Ahab and his final confrontation with Moby Dick.
