Exposure - the film screening
Suggested donation $18
Streaming between June 1-4
"A triumph for all involved...a delight and joy for viewers...a chilling revelation."–Chicago Tribune
As the arctic polar ice cap melts, reaching the North Pole--climate change ground zero--has become increasingly dangerous. Yet an expedition of ordinary women from the Arab world and the West strap on skis and haul heaving sledges toward true north, against all odds and polar advice.
Award-winning filmmaker, Holly Morris, captures it all, from punishing frostbite and polar bear threats to Russian helicoptercrashes and moving Arctic sea ice to sexism and self-doubt in this intimate story of resilience, survival and global citizenry — on what may be the last-ever expedition to the top of the world.
