The film follows three generations of scientists studying sea ice in a changing climate, and what it will mean for the planet. Dr Natalie Robinson, Antarctica New Zealand scholarship recipient Jacqui Stuart and Prof Pat Langhorne feature in the film, which showcases their ground-breaking research, and what it’s like to work in the most extreme environment on Earth.
Mighty Indeed’s director, Vanessa Wells, travelled to Scott Base in 2019 as part of Antarctica New Zealand’s Community Engagement Programme and was supported by our team on the ice.
Other outputs of Vanessa’s time on ice include a children’s play that toured New Zealand primary schools, a short documentary that plays on loop at the International Antarctic Centre, and a piece on the number 4 for Sesame Street.
