As the Arctic polar ice cap melts, reaching the North Pole has become increasingly dangerous. Yet an expedition of ordinary women from the Arab World and the West strap on skis and haul heaving sledges toward true North, against all odds and polar advice.
Award-winning filmmaker Holly Morris (The Babushkas of Chernobyl) captures it all, from frostbite and polar bear threats, to sexism and self-doubt in this intimate story of resilience, survival and global citizenry — on what may be the last-ever expedition to the top of the world.
"A beautiful documentary extolling the human spirit to conquer the unconquerable.... a story of suspense and thrills.... a visually stunning adventure to one of the most extreme locales in the world."
- Film Threat
"A triumph for all involved...a delight and joy for viewers...a chilling revelation."
- Chicago Tribune
