Synopsis

The film documents American-born film director, Mike Magidson, as he travels to Uummannaq, Greenland—where he has previously made three films: Ice School (2000), La longue trace (2003), and Inuk (2012). Mentored and outfitted by the local Inuit community, Magidson attempts to survive for several weeks, alone on an ice floe, using dog sleds to fish and hunt seal.^[1][2]
