Synopsis

This breath-taking, award-winning documentary aims to graphically illustrate the effects of climate change on the world's glaciers. Ranging from Greenland to Alaska, James Balog's Extreme Ice Survey captures both the majesty of these ice fields in stunning and pioneering time-lapse photography, but also their shockingly rapid retreat. A call for action and a beautiful record of our changing world, this fascinating film also acts as a testament to one man's determination to deliver a wake-up call to the world. The result is a galvanising rather than depressing experience.
