"There seems to be a real appetite for this type of ambitious, international-driven event documentary," said Christine Cauquelin, head of documentaries at Canal Plus, adding that the docu will be a cross-platform event that will be accompanied by an exhibition at La Villette's La Cite des Sciences, and a book of photographs documenting the expedition.
