A Town Called Charlie

In the North Sea… a world takes shape. This atmospheric documentary tells the story.

Documentary 1981 26 mins

Overview

In the North Sea… a world takes shape. This atmospheric and consistently fascinating documentary tells the story of the Charlie platform in the Brent oilfield, and the tough-but-tender men (they are all men) peopling it. The North Sea was a chessboard of concessions and numerous consortia. In this case both the platform and the film resulted collaboration between two giants of the oil industry (and oil filmmaking), Shell and Esso.
