Young Gerrit de Veer is the rookie writer on a 16th century Dutch merchant vessel on a daring mission to find a northern trade route to Asia. The journey turns into a tragedy when the ship gets stuck in ice and the men are forced to spend the winter on the frozen, arctic wasteland of Nova Zembla, fighting polar bears , hunger and lethal temperatures. Their chances of making it until the following spring are virtually zero
