Overview
Vast, wild, yet extremely fragile. The coldest place on our planet is also one of the most affected by global warming and needs to be protected. The expedition focuses on exploring, documenting, and surfing in the South Shetland Islands and the Antarctic Peninsula, in the area known as Domain 1, which is being pushed for Marine Protected Area (MPA) status. Protected areas are very important for mitigating climate change and, in this case, also for regulating human activities such as concentrated fishing. This film helps us understand the importance of this area and the threats affecting it.
