Abstract
The Arctic is warming up twice as fast as the rest of the planet; its frozen world is one of the last refuges of the unknown land on Earth and the Arctic, as we know it, is, literally, disappearing. Under the threat of global warming, this vast expanse of water and ice, and its inhabitants, are facing unprecedented upheavals. This timely documentary, the first of two on climate change, follows the year-round trip of the CCGS Amundsen, a Canadian research ice-breaker, on an unparalleled scientific mission - the most important it has ever carried out - where some 40 scientists from a dozen countries study the area's fragile ecosystem; here they travel on an Arctic odyssey, endeavoring to better understand the future of the world around us.
