Overview:

Tim, Michael, and Dennis are artists, photographers, and filmmakers. They have one goal: to travel to Antarctica, capture the adventure on camera, and turn it into a feature film. They are willing to risk everything to achieve this goal. Without a production company or concrete buyers, but with a great deal of recklessness and two years of unpaid investment time, they set off for Antarctica. This is the only way they can find out whether you can really achieve anything if you want it badly enough. They want to capture their journey with all its ups and downs.
