“The Big White”

Adventure (), Havard Jenssen (Norwegen) 52 min

Børge Ousland is attempting the ultimate feat of human endurance, crossing the entire Arctic sea, from Siberia to Canada via The North Pole – alone, and unsupported en route. No one has managed such a challenge before. For Børge Ousland, one of the great Polar explorers, this will be his greatest test. He is extremely well prepared, but meets unexpected problems. After only one week he wants to give up. He has to re-focus his motivation, finding the beauty of his trip. But frostbite and an exhausted body force him to slow down. Finally, after three months and 1,800 kilometres on the ice he reaches his goal – Canada.
