Arctic

Stranded for weeks when his plane went down over the Arctic Circle, Overgård (Mads Mikkelsen) maintained spirit and sanity through rigid routine aimed at survival and potential escape. After a copter responding to his SOS crashes-leaving one sole rescuer (María Thelma Smáradóttir) alive but comatose-he's left no choice but to lash her to a sled and set out across the unforgiving tundra in search of their salvation, in this spare and stunning man-versus-nature opus from Iceland. 97 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
