Heart-stopping in its coverage of the brave and risky attempt by a scientist named James Balog and his team of researchers on the Extreme Ice Survey, where "extreme" refers to their efforts almost more than to the ice. During repeated expeditions to Greenland, Iceland, Alaska and Montana, the team took stop-motion cameras and anchored them in place.
