Spend a year at the bottom of the world. This extraordinary doc follows a close-knit, multinational community and their unimaginable existence. Profoundly isolated, enduring both unending darkness and daylight, Antarctic residents experience firsthand the beauty and brutality of the most severe environment on Earth. Frozen Planet cinematographer Anthony Powell captures epic battles against hellacious storms, quiet reveries of nature's grandeur and everyday moments of work and laughter. D: Anthony Powell, NZ, 2013, 92m
