Abstract:

Filmmaker Mark Terry leads an expedition to Antarctica to report on the new discoveries made by the world's scientific community stationed there during International Polar Year (March 2007-March 2009). This award-winning documentary reveals many startling new scientific revelations such as penguin suicide, new vegetation growing in the world's largest desert, diminishing population of land animals and marine life and the dangerously increasing melting of Antarctica's land ice.
