Sinopse
Eight years in the making, ICEBOUND tells the gripping story behind the legendary 1925 Alaskan Serum Run – a breathtaking true-life adventure tale of dogs and heroes in the frozen Arctic. The film tells a beloved tale celebrated by generations, and goes far beyond the well-known legend of the dog, Balto. It is a story that will feel timely even today: a story of survival, of politics, of racism, of tabloid journalism, of the simple but heroic survival of the people who endure in the arctic, and ultimately of the triumph of the human spirit. The production team visited Alaska fourteen times, searching for surviving witnesses to the events of 1925. Many who appear in the film still live in the tiny Native villages that line the 700-mile trail, which remains inaccessible to any major city.
