The story

What Is On Thin Ice About?

The premise of On Thin Ice without spoilers.

Climate change profoundly impacts the indigenous Nenets people of Siberia, threatening their traditional reindeer herding lifestyle as the ground becomes increasingly unstable. The Russian Arctic is undergoing dramatic changes, with thawing permafrost revealing ancient viruses and bacteria. Wildfires rage across the taiga, and melting pack ice forces polar bears closer to human settlements. Combining indigenous observations with scientific measurements, the documentary reveals a disturbing picture of the Arctic's transformation and the alarming consequences of global warming, filmed in previously restricted areas.
