Desc: Le village de l'Antarctique: Directed by Jean-Gabriel Leynaud. The scientific base, Dome C, stands out in the middle of the harshest and most unfriendly desert of the world in Antarctica. It can only be reached after crossing the ice floe and the 1,200 km inland, on board the imposing polar trucks which convey food and assistance to the base. Thirty people or so live there two months a year during the Austral summer, when the sun shines 24 hours a day, with temperatures below -30 °C. Sharing their daily lives in extreme climatic conditions and learning about the new scientific investigations being conducted, this film reveals the impact of those researches on our understanding of the climate.
