14 MINUTI PER MORIRE: Il naufragio della Empress of Ireland, il Titanic canadese

On May 29, 1914, the Empress of Ireland, pride of the Canadian Pacific Steamship Company, left the port of Quebec bound for Liverpool. In the thick fog of the St. Lawrence River, she collided with the Norwegian liner Storstad. In just 14 minutes, the ocean liner sank, taking over 1,000 lives with her. This is the story of a catastrophe that, despite its magnitude, was overshadowed by tragedies like those of the Titanic and the Lusitania. A journey down memory lane, reenactments of the sinking, and the memory of those who never returned.
