YouTube Video Description

Queen Mary 2 Embarkation Day - The start of the first BFI Film Festival at Sea transatlantic crossing with CUNARD. We board the iconic QM2 (the last ocean liner) in Southampton for our 7-night voyage to New York USA across the North Atlantic. The same route as the ill-fated Titanic. Boarding Queen Mary 2 is like travelling back in time to the golden days of sea travel. With its art deco design and stylish public areas, QM2 is unique. This voyage was also the first BFI Film Festival at sea with speakers, including Miranda Richardson and the film director Gurinder Chadha OBE.
