Istraživanja klimatologa Jacka Halla pokazuju da bi globalno zagrijavanje moglo izazvati nagle i katastrofalne promjene u Zemljinoj klimi. Bušenje na Antarktiku pokazuje da se to već dogodilo prije 10 000 godina. Hall upozorava političke vođe na potrebu da odmah poduzmu mjere kako bi se to spriječilo. Ali njihova upozorenja dolaze prekasno. Sve počinje kad Hall svjedoči o ledenom bloku veličine Rhode Islanda koji se potpuno odvojio od Antarktika. Tada se niz neočekivanih vremenskih pojava počinje događati u različitim dijelovima svijeta: kuglice tuče veličine grejpa uništavaju Tokio, orkanski vjetrovi prolaze kroz Havaje, snijeg u New Delhiju i niz razornih tornada u Los Angelesu.

Six polar explorers arrives to a remote island in Arctic for a year-long scientific expedition. When their ship departs, they unpack only to find a young stowaway, who romanticized Arctic heroes, and tried to join them on multiple occasions finally succeeding. That's how six became seven. Life of polar explorers is tough, and full of danger. During one year they are largely isolated from the mainland, and should survive using their resourcefulness, smarts, knowledge, and existing supplies with occasional unreliable radio communications. The Seven are resilient, cheerful, they forged a true friendship. Now they are ready to face the unforgiving Arctic.

This pioneering documentary film depicts the lives of the indigenous Inuit people of Canada's northern Quebec region. Although the production contains some fictional elements, it vividly shows how its resourceful subjects survive in such a harsh climate, revealing how they construct their igloo homes and find food by hunting and fishing. The film also captures the beautiful, if unforgiving, frozen landscape of the Great White North, far removed from conventional civilization.

An extreme stunts comedy that features the wild antics of four hilarious, lifelong friends and their crazy lives in the Arctic Circle.

BBC weatherman Peter Gibbs makes an emotional return to Antarctica, years after he lived and worked at the British Antarctic Survey's Halley Research Station.

Does doctor Jan Terelak belong to an “elitist” group of the most unethical experimenters? The Polish scientist tested boundaries of human mental resilience in extreme conditions of solitude in Antarctica. The starting point for Piotr Jaworski's documentary is the psychologist's journal. The project from forty years ago was focused on studying the mental condition of polar explorers at the Polish station. Men were in the situation of confinement, comparable to a space mission. The film reconstructs these events, referring to the then contemporary context and changes in the perception of science.
