Note: What if Nemo was a real man, whose actual life was more fantastic and adventurous than all the fictions it inspired?
Synopsis: The son of a French shipbuilder, Andre Nemo goes to sea as a cabin boy, faces marauding pirates and bloodthirsty sharks, is marooned for years on a mysterious island, battles prehistoric monsters long believed extinct, journeys to the center of the Earth, balloons across Africa, escapes Arab slavers, discovers the fabled city of Timbuktu, endures a plague of locusts, survives the Charge of the Light Brigade, tends to the wounded with Florence Nightingale, is pressed into service by the ruthless Robert the Conqueror, and ultimately, wages war on War itself as the captain of his greatest creation: the underwater vessel known as the Nautilus.
Told is also the story of Nemo's childhood friend, Jules Verne, who would bestow immortality upon the captain's exploits, and of the remarkable woman they both loved to the very end.
