The Expedition to the End of the World is a film about the origins of the world, the end of human civilisation, and life on earth once we are gone. A road movie into unknown regions of the globe and mind – on an Arctic schooner heavily armed with art and science bound for the most spectacular nature in Northeast Greenland. Manmade speed and efficiency confront the power of ice, but no matter how far we travel, and how hard we try to find answers, the ultimate confrontation is with ourselves and our transience as a species.
