Plot Summary

The commander of a failed 1928 Arctic airship expedition is remembering the events of the "Italia" airship flight, crash, and subsequent rescue efforts. The "ghosts" of people involved in the events appear in his memories to assist him in determining his guilt in the affair. The reminiscences are mixed with the real action: the flight of the "Italia", the air rescue operation from Kings Bay airfield, the expedition of the "Krassin" ice-breaker. A sort of human touch is added by the ever beautiful C.C. playing Malmgren's girlfriend. Written by E. Kocourek

Goofs During the final break up of the pack-ice, many shots are included that in fact depict the calving of icebergs at a glacier snout or edge of an ice-shelf. Pack-ice breaking up and icebergs calving are completely unlike each other visually - and, as physical phenomena, are entirely unrelated. See more »

Quotes Aviator Lundborg: Men are risking their necks for fame, a medal, promotion, or money. What's wrong with money, mm? Just a means to happiness.
Roald Amundsen: But you don't look like a happy man, exactly. More like a man who's learned to be indifferent to unhappiness.
Aviator Lundborg: I'm glad you know it all, Mr. Amundsen.
Roald Amundsen: But you see, a man who is indifferent to his own unhappiness is indifferent to everything.
