Into the Cold: A Journey of the Soul is a documentary film written and directed by Sebastian Copeland that follows two men's journey to the geographic North Pole in 2009, commemorating the centennial of Admiral Peary's successful 1909 reach.[1] The film retraces the training and two-month expedition of Sebastian Copeland and his partner Keith Heger as they cover more than 400 miles on foot in sub-zero temperatures. Into the Cold communicates the message that there will be no bicentennial expedition to the North Pole due to the rapidly vanishing polar ice cap.

Critical reception[edit]

During its first festival run in 2010, Into the Cold was selected for the 2010 Tribeca Film Festival,[2] and the 2011 Environmental Film Fest, Victoria Film Fest and the Blue Planet Film Fest.[3] At the Indie Spirit Film Festival 2010, Into the Cold was the Audience Award Winner for Best Sports/Adventure Film. The film was also the Winner for Best Director and 2nd Place Winner for Documentary Feature at the Los Angeles Reel Film Festival in 2009.[4]
