In this visually stunning exploration, Herzog travels to the Antartic community of McMurdo Station, headquaters of the National Science Foundation and home to eleven hundred people during the austral summer(Oct-Feb). Over the course of his journey, Herzog examines human nature and Mother nature, juxtaposing breathtaking locations with the profound, surreal, and sometimes absurd experiences of the marine biologists, physicists, plumbers, and truck drivers who choose to form a society as far away from society as one can get.
