Join us in Queenstown for an unforgettable evening of storytelling from the coldest place on Earth.
The New Zealand Antarctic Society is proud to present a curated selection of captivating short films from the heart of Antarctica. This compelling programme blends stunning documentary footage that reveals the continent’s stark beauty, unforgiving conditions, climate change, penguin antics and stories captured by inventive, often humorous, entries from the Winter International Film Festival of Antarctica’s 48-Hour Challenge, an annual showcase of creativity and resilience from those who live and work on the Ice.
But before that, you will be taken on the journey of a local speaker about their first-hand Antarctic experiences, or there will be a powerful presentation that introduces you to 20 facets of Antarctica in 20 minutes, so hang on to your seats!
