How is the Arctic changing in the age of a global warming? Is it possible to adapt to these changes? Why do we need to listen to scientists?
These are very topical questions that this documentary is trying to answer.
Kuba Witek – the filmmaker – accompanies scientific expedition to western Spitsbergen during fieldwork and works conducted on the Oceania vessel and Magnus Zaremba polar yacht. Researchers observed arctic glaciers, which react quickly to changing climatic conditions. They are also looking for any organisms that appear in places from which the glacier withdrew to understand the processes associated with global warming.
The film takes viewers into the melting Arctic and lets them explore the beauty of its changing landscape during the warmest Summer ever. And all this with the accompaniment of beautiful, immersive music.
