    Storyline

    • Trivia
      The production filmed on location on glaciers mostly in Iceland, some in Greenland, and relied minimally on CGI. In casting actor Joe Cole as Mikkelsen's very green companion Iver Iversen, the filmmakers warned the actor that the conditions would be harsh and comforts minimal.
    • Goofs
      In the military briefing room while discussing search and rescue, the map in the background shows a modern-day outline of Greenland. Whereas the motivation for their exploration was to explore its unknown boundaries.
    • Quotes

      Neergaard: [at podium] Remember the single most important task for an explorer. When you travel into unknown lands to discover new parts of the global, it is to ensure the records of your discoveries are delivered back safe and sound, with or without you. Otherwise it is all in vain. The blood, and sweat, and tears, would all be for nothing.

    Amazing work Nikolaj.

    Directed by Peter Flinth, the movie is like a Jack London novel set in 1910.

    Dogs, polar travel, nature and people.

    Although Peter Flinth has many films, this one is a masterpiece.

    Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Joe Derrick both starred and wrote the script.

    Charles Dance is the surprise name of the movie.

    Nikolaj Coster-Waldau deserves all my respect.

    Visual and sound engineering is very good.

    The movie is a very good choice, especially for those who like Jack London-style novels.
