"'The momentum of more than forty thousand tons is as absolute as the darkness' (John McPhee, Looking for a Ship). Hutton's most recent film—a riveting and revelatory chronicle of the birth, life, and death of a colossal container ship—is unquestionably one of his most ambitious and profound. Charting a three-year passage from twenty-first-century ship building in South Korea to primitive and dangerous ship breaking in Bangladesh—with an epic journey across the North Atlantic in between—Hutton has created a haunting meditation on human progress, both physical and metaphorical." — MoMA
