Aro Favourite Antarctica - A Year on Ice

 

New Zealand 2013, 92 minutes
Dir. Anthony Powell
Rating: [Exempt]
Genres: Documentary / Science Fact

Topics: Eco-friendly, Educational Resource.

 

Synopsis: A visually stunning chronicle of what it is like to live in Antarctica for a full year, enduring the notorious four-month winter of virtual darkness.

Aroview: A superb, multi-faceted insider's chronicle of life on the Earth's formidable southern pole that masterfully captures both the environmental magnificence and the unique human culture that survives and thrives within in it.

Ten years in the making, Kiwi polymath Anthony Powell matches his technical skills as a resident engineer with a genuine film-maker's instinct for storytelling and eye for beautiful images - his breath-taking time-lapse photography also serving as an ingenious device to condense information and enrich experience. Replete with his own down-to-earth, personal presentation, the result is richly educational, philosophical, and nothing short of a vicarious thrill.
