Hvad nu, hvis du kunne rejse tilbage i tiden og ændre bare en enkelt begivenhed? Hvad ville du så lave om? For John Sullivan er der ingen tvivl. Han ville ændre de begivenheder, der 12 oktober 1969 ledte til, at en voldsom ildebrand tog den højt dekorerede brandmand og hans højt elskede far, Frank Sullivans, liv. John har aldrig rigtigt overvundet faderens død. Hans ægteskab går ikke særligt godt, hans arbejde som kriminalbetjent virker indholdsløst og alt i alt er der ikke noget, der rigtigt fungerer.
Et amerikansk olieselskab sender en mand til Skotland for at opkøbe en hel landsby, hvor de vil bygge et raffinaderi. Men tingene går ikke som forventet.
Joanna er vokset op I Malaysia og har som barn aldrig oplevet sne og kulde. Derfor har hun altid drømt om at rejse til det kolde nord. Og det gør hun her med en rejse, der fører hende gennem Norge til nord for polarcirklen og helt til Svalbard, det nordligste permanent beboede sted på jorden, hvor temperaturen nærmer sig minus 30 grader. Til gengæld kan hun bo på et hotel, der er bygget af is.
In a near-future post apocalyptic world, a father must cross a dangerous landscape to reunite with his wife and daughter.
A look at the northern lights (aurora borealis) from aboriginal beliefs to scientific theories.
A terminally ill girl, who dreams of going to Finland to see the northern lights, falls in love
A black-and-white visual meditation of wilderness and the elements. Wildlife filmmaker Richard Sidey returns to the triptych format for a cinematic experience like no other.
Six fearless surfers travel to the north coast of Iceland to ride waves unlike anything they've ever experienced, captured with high-tech cameras.
This is a tale that has an epic scope in scenery "the northern snow-covered lands of coastal Norway" and is dramatized by moments of tumultuous stormy weather. But the focus is on Heikki (Stein Bjorn) a young man who is inspired by the northern lights to take a horse-drawn sled and make his way to the sea, hoping to come back with abundant fish. He is overtaken by a snowstorm and is forced to find shelter in a small, isolated cabin that is home to a half-crazy widow, her baby, and a blind man. Driven to arson by her internal demons, the woman destroys the cabin. She and the blind man perish, but Heikki manages to save the baby. He is now faced with an even greater challenge as he holds the infant and looks in the direction of the coastline.
Constantly orbiting at 400 km (250 mi) above the earth, the ISS is perfectly situated to witness the beautiful streamers of green and red light emanating from the collision of highly charged solar wind particles with oxygen and nitrogen atoms in the earth's atmosphere. Centered about the northern (Aurora Borealis) and southern (Aurora Australis) poles the Auroras move in an almost hypnotic dance below the space station.
The aurora borealis is a natural moving multicolour light display observed in the high northern latitude. This natural phenomenon is a source of imagination and awe that drives exploration of the world around us.
Dr. Brekke shared the science behind the aurora borealis as a visual manifestation on the sun-Earth connection. And how this also can affect our technology based society. He talked about the production of the documentary.
Arktis is a poetic approach to the bizarre landscape of ice, rock, and water; a journey to the arctic ocean and surroundings, with images and sounds. Seventy one-second scenes of the arctic serve as the original material, which is then transformed in its texture, time lapse, color and light qualities to create a material reminiscent of landscape painting. The sound collage uses fragments from sounds of nature and samples from a piece of music for violin and song, which are also transformed in a manner similar to that of the visual pictures.
