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.
