In this comprehensive documentary, we tell the true story of this colossus: from its construction in England, how it was requisitioned by the Royal Navy during World War I (serving as HMS Canada at the Battle of Jutland), to its return to Chile in 1921, where it became the most feared flagship in the South Pacific.
