Plot summary

An international team of scientists venture into the virtually unknown interior of Antarctica to explore a lake buried 3,600 feet beneath the ice. Their success hinges on the performance of their custom-built hot water drill and their ability to work as a team in the harshest climate on the planet. As they struggle against the ferocity of the ice and wind to unravel mysteries buried deep under Antarctica, they consider how our relationship with nature – and with one another — will impact humanity’s future and the future of all life on our rapidly changing planet.

For Antarctica science fans it's a decent watch, albeit one with climate-propaganda overtones.

This is a documentary about Antarctica field research, so many may find the content rather boring. However, having a fascination for places like Antarctica and an interest in science, I found the documentary fairly insightful and relatively entertaining. This particular field research is unique given the environment. The preparation and execution of this expedition is admirable. Considering the quality of film, it is overall good, but not great.This film is not without the obligatory climate-change narratives. Some of the featured researchers and ultimate "discoveries" draw conclusions beyond the scope of the experiments, confirming the political motivations. Nonetheless, it didn't completely overshadow the film.For audiences drawn to Antarctica or those interested in unique field research, it's worth a watch.

In another life, this would have been a great adventure

Interesting to see what they did and how they did it! The climate change theme wasn't as bad as many of these type documentaries, so it is well worth the watch. 10,000 years ago when there was salt water up there would seem to take man out of the equation or at least rank our impact as correlation vs causation. This documentary was actually beautiful to watch and informative on how they had to live to perform their experiments. Like my title says, this would have been a great adventure to collect the samples like they did. It would have been nice to have some summary of any information they collected once the samples were studied, although that may have gone against the man made climate change manta.

Nice to see good weather in Antartica for once

The man made global warming propaganda doesn't start until about an hour in, so it's pretty straight forward until then. The editor was obviously amazingly skilled, by not including the wacko climate religion propaganda for a whole hour, when the whole purpose of most of these "scientists" is to just try to prove how humanity is bad, killing the earth, and then lobby governments to kill humans instead.Expecting to go to Antartica and not meet religious climate wackos, is moronic. Somehow, this movie pulls it off for an hour and makes it seem like all the people are just normal people and not part of a religious climate cult intent on the destruction of humanity.It was entertaining to watch. The "discoveries" at the end are pretty common sense except for the first one, which is outright stupid, and proves that most of these people doing "research" down there are just tyrants.
