Cinematography is wonderful. Amazing adventure film made in Greenland. The storyline is interesting including the real footage in Greenland. The shots of the frozen north, the icebergs, and the freezing Atlantic serve as a spectacular backdrop for the story. The aerial shots of rescue planes are also great. The filming of the iceberg as it breaks apart and rolls in the ocean as it seeks a new balancing point is a one-of-a-kind scene.
