Klappentext
A group of men set sail to solve the mystery of a sea monster in this amazing underwater adventure.
Professor Aronnax agrees to investigate a series of attacks by a mysterious sea monster and joins the crew of the ship Abraham Lincoln. The men encounter what they believe is the monster, but turns out to be a large, state-of-the-art submarine, the Nautilus. Aronnax and a hot tempered harpoonist, Ned Land, are imprisoned on this vessel, captained by the misanthropic recluse, Nemo, who takes them on an underwater journey around the world.
