Shark Month begins with historical Norweigan adventure film, Kon-Tiki (2012). The film ponders what happens when you put six men on a raft and send them across the ocean on a 101 day journey.

Plus: jelly fish, whales, storms and, of course, sharks! With toxic masculinity, cult vibes, and a whiff of racism to boot.
