AURORA Expeditions’ Founder, Greg Mortimer, is inviting fans of exploration and nature documentaries to check out an enthralling new film at a series of special screenings.
Titled The Great White Whale, the film tells the story of the first attempts to climb Big Ben, Australia’s highest mountain, located on Heard Island, halfway between Australia and South Africa.
At 9,000 feet, the mountain is 500m higher than Kosciuszko and a snowy volcano described as “Australia’s loneliest, most remote outpost”.

Aurora Expeditions has partnered with the film’s director, Michael Dillon, to host screenings in major Australian cities and regional centres during Oct and Nov.
The series kicks off in Canberra on 13 Oct before moving to Sydney, Ballina, the Sunshine Coast, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sawtell, Bowral, Albury, Melbourne, Hobart, Adelaide and Castlemaine.
As a special bonus, each event will feature a Q&A session with Dillon.
Movie-goers at each event will also have the chance to learn more about Aurora Expeditions’ upcoming range of polar expeditions and see the line’s latest brochure.
