September 1, 1985. The RMS Titanic, which has been missing since April 15, 1912, is found in the North Atlantic where it lies at a depth of 3,821 metres.

Paul-Henri Nargeolet, a commander in the French Navy, directed underwater research of part of many expeditions to the wreck, from 1987 until his untimely death in 2023.

With hundreds of hours of diving to the liner and more than five thousand objects brought to the surface, including bottles of champagne, luggage, and jewellery, the last secrets of the liner will be revealed, reliving the ship’s maiden voyage and tragic destiny.

Through the incredible story of his expeditions, Paul-Henri Nargeolet brings to life the Titanic, that of its passengers and its crew, and offers a unique point of view on this maritime disaster.

He was the Director of the Underwater Research Program for RMS Titanic, Inc. (USA). In that capacity, he supervised the recovery of some 5,000 artifacts from the site of the wreck.
