The Polar Sea

The Polar Sea follows an extraordinary group of explorers through the legendary Northwest Passage. Nowhere on Earth is warming as quickly as the Arctic and nowhere are the impacts as dramatic. The most obvious effect is the shrinking polar ice cap. Its disappearance is drawing scientists, artists and explorers to the Arctic Ocean, eager to challenge the passage and understand climate change here. The Polar Sea is a 10-hour television series blending adventure, science and arts to take the audience on a journey that is thrilling and profound. (official distributor synopsis)
