Built in the 1960s, the SS France, a world-class cruise ship that offered a unique and luxurious experience at sea, became the pride and joy of an entire nation before retiring for good amid great sadness. Today the legendary liner is coming home: its successor, the "new France," is scheduled to cruise the world's oceans in 2021. Through stirring accounts, never-before-seen images, high-quality 3D content and exclusive interviews we trace the historical journey of the older ship, and get a behind-the-scenes look at what the new one will be like.
