Antarctica: A Ticket to Eternity plot
Documentary about people in the Antarctic. Many generations of explorers have traveled to the Deep South in recent decades. Gradually, the hardships lost importance and Antarctica turned into a playground for adventurers and researchers. Rolf Orthel followed a number of polar explorers between 1990 and 1994 and immersed himself in their thinking and motivations. Some appear to be inspired by the heroism of the past. Most of them, however, want to gain knowledge and understanding in a contemporary way about the scientific riches that this frozen world harbors.
