Dani Menkin’s portrait of a rugged individualist whose passion verges on obsession is a thrilling cinematic experience. Fearlessly adventurous, Amos Nachoum is one of the greatest underwater photographers of all time. At the age of 65, he has one last chance to fulfill his lifelong quest to be the first human to photograph polar bears while swimming with them without protection - as he has done with anacondas, giant leopard seals, great white sharks, orcas, and crocodiles. While he is on this daring journey to the Canadian high Arctic, the stoic sportsman and uncompromising artist must also confront a painful memory.
