Vendée Globe, Alone Around the World documentary series on France 2, Digi Mart USA News (Les Sables-d’Olonne): A documentary series titled Vendée Globe, Alone Around the World, directed by Thomas Sametin, takes viewers into the legend of the oceans: the solo, non-stop, unassisted round-the-world race.
The series received a production grant of 20,000 euros from the Pays de la Loire Region, in partnership with the CNC, the French national film center. All six episodes of 35 minutes each will air in full on France 2 on Tuesday, November 10, starting at 9:10 p.m.
The production followed six skippers during the 2024-2025 round-the-world race: Jérémie Beyou, Conrad Colman, Clarisse Crémer, Violette Dorange, Pip Hare and Thomas Ruyant. Cameras mounted on each boat captured their daily lives across the Atlantic swells, the Indian Ocean storms and the vastness of the Pacific, sailing alone and without assistance.
The series also pays tribute to Charlie Dalin, winner of the 2024-2025 Vendée Globe, who died in June 2026.
The race began on November 10, 2024, with skippers setting off on a voyage of 45,000 kilometers around the world. Over more than seventy days, the sailors faced the elements and their own limits, while their families, teams, friends and race management remained ashore.
The series documents breakdowns, accidents, performances, moments of pressure and real achievements, moving between land and sea and between tears of frustration and bursts of joy. It was directed by Thomas Sametin and co-written with Emile Rabaté and Mitchell Rosenbaum.
The Pays de la Loire Region supports film and audiovisual production through its creation fund, which helps nearly 50 film projects each year, and offers filming services through the regional Bureau d’Accueil des Tournages.
