Seventy
Degrees North
This film follows David Bellamy and his friend Torben Sorensen on their
expedition to Scoresbysund, East Greenland in the spring of 2006. Bouncing
across mountain passes and frozen sea on dog sleds whilst trying to
sketch and paint, and living in remote huts in very primitive conditions
at temperatures well below freezing was a unique experience. Even though
he was filming and taking a great many photographs, David returned with
one of the best collections of expedition sketchbooks he has ever done
Although this is not an instructional film, it does show David's methods
of working, gives an insight into his motivation and inspiration and
shows a number of sketches and paintings from the trip.
