1947. A scientist, tired of war, eagerly pursues an expedition that can boldly be described as a “mission impossible”. Norwegian scientist Thor Herdahl believes that the people of South America settled in Polynesia – which was still in pre-Columbian times. To prove this revolutionary thesis, Thor takes a desperate step. Along with five other daredevils (only one of whom is known about sailing), he set out on a cruise across the Pacific Ocean, using a wooden raft called Kon-Tiki as a means of transport. They have 8 thousand to overcome. Kilometers (distributor description).

“Kon-Tiki Expedition” is a movie based on the true story of Thor Heyerdahl, a Norwegian ethnographer who proved that the Polynesian islands were settled by American settlers. He did so against the scientist of science at the time, who completely ruled out the possibility of reaching the Pacific Islands by a prehistoric boat from South America. Kon-Tiki is the name of the Sun King, who is worshiped by both the Incas and the Polynesians.

In “Kon-Tikki’s Journey,” the most prominent features are the visuals and the story-based story. The movie keeps you on the lookout, while being an excellent suggestion for the whole family.
