The documentary will provide a look into what the experience was like on the ship through eyewitness accounts and cell phone footage from the passengers who lived the nightmare.

These join a growing collection of premium original documentaries including JOHN WAYNE GACY: DEVIL IN DISGUISE, and true crime series like UNSOLVED MYSTERIES, SNAPPED, THE FIRST 48, and NBC DATELINE.
