A story of determination, solidarity and team work.
Can a group of physically handicapped individuals conquer the South Pole?
In January 2009 the world saw the achievement of an unprecedented milestone. The first South Pole expedition of handicapped individuals was organized, following the path of the legendary explorer Ernest Shackleton. This challenging feat was achieved with no outside help, only the expedition's resources.
The thread of the documentary is the trip, followed from the start, including the first training sessions in Barcelona, to the conquest of the Antarctic. The work includes firsthand accounts from the expedition members, Xavier Valbuena, Eric Villalon and Jesús Noriega.
Viewers are taken on a journey through unforgettable, breathtaking landscapes in a documentary that invites them to face up to their own challenges and conquer their own South Pole.
In short, a story of perseverance, solidarity and an iron will to overcome obstacles.
