Storyline
In the Antarctic, after an expedition with Dr. Davis McClaren, the sled dog trainer Jerry Shepherd has to leave the polar base with his colleagues due to the proximity of a heavy snow storm. He ties his dogs to be rescued after, but the mission is called-off and the dogs are left alone at their own fortune. For six months, Jerry tries to find a sponsor for a rescue mission while his dogs fight for survival. Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Errors in geography: The bar is supposedly located in Christchurch, New Zealand, however, it is obviously located in Canada. The beer taps behind the bar show Alexander Keith's India Pale Ale (brewed in Nova Scotia) and Kokanee (brewed in BC) - two VERY Canadian brands. See more »Quotes
