On a three-masted schooner aboard with artists, scientists and ambitions worthy of Noah or Columbus, we set off towards the end of the world: in this case, the rapidly melting ice massifs in North-East Greenland. An epic journey where the brave sailors get acquainted with imaginary tent pitches, polar bear nightmares and entirely new species. But in their encounter with unknown parts of our world, the crew addresses a number of questions of fundamental, existential nature. Curiosity, great pathos and a liberating splash of humour come together in a film that is superbly orchestrated in one iconic image after another.
