Cold Coasts: Life on the Arctic Edge

Editor's Take
A portrait of life on the Arctic's edge, where coastlines freeze and thaw and animals time their whole year to the ice. Atmospheric and unhurried, it captures a world defined by the calendar of the cold.
This 4K episode explores the frozen coasts of the Arctic, where life clings to the edge of the world's most unforgiving environment. It follows the animals that survive along these icy shores, adapting to bitter cold, shifting sea ice, and long polar nights. The film reveals the resilience it takes to endure at the top of the planet. Stark and beautiful, it is an immersive Arctic portrait. Free to stream in 4K on Dr Documentary.
