Description
Summary:Unique in the genre of exploration and adventure films Ice People takes you on one of the earth's most seductive journeys-- Antarctica. Emmy-winning documentary filmmaker Anne Aghion spent four months "on the ice" with modern-day polar explorers, finding out what drives this dedicated pursuit of science, capturing the true experience of living and working in this extreme environment, and witnessing one of the most significant discoveries about climate change in recent Antarctic science. The most authentic film about life on the ice since the trailblazing expeditions chronicled nearly a century ago, Ice people conveys the vast beauty, the claustrophobia, the excitement and the stillness of an experience set to nature's rhythm.
