The Wonders (2014)

Directed by David Lickley42m2014

Wonders of the Arctic 3D centers on our ongoing mission to explore and come to terms with the Arctic, and the compelling stories of our many forays into this captivating place will be interwoven to create a unifying message about the state of the Arctic today. Underlying all these tales is the crucial role that ice plays in the northern environment and the changes that are quickly overtaking the people and animals who have adapted to this land of ice and snow.

Our read: The Wonders (2014) (2014) reads as a neutral, slow-burn, grounded drama entry — gentle in intensity, intimate in scope, measured in temperature, ambivalent in outlook, with a strong directorial signature.
