From September 2, 2016 to March 2, 2017 - Wonders of the Arctic - a film examining the vast ice wilderness of the Arctic screens at the Lefrak Theatre of the American Museum of Natural History in NYC. The shows run daily, every half hour from 10:30 to 16:30. The film is available in 3D Digital and 2D. Set in the frozen wilderness at the top of the world, Wonders of the Arctic tells the story of survival in one of the most unforgiving environments on earth dominated by ice.

Far away in the glittering world of ice and snow, polar bears tussle, huskies howl, and narwhals dive within the turquoise waters. Through compelling stories told by scientists and Inuit leaders, viewers of the movie discover the impact of ice on the Arctic’s inhabitants, both animals and humans. For thousands of years, the Inuit and their predecessors have adapted and thrived in this beautiful yet harsh environment. Today, their survival has inspired scientists to conduct intense research and answer troubling questions about life in this fragile and largely uninhabited landscape.

Wonders of the Arctic is directed by award-winning film-maker David Lickley, the film takes audiences on a journey across one of the most beautiful and frigid places on Earth, exploring how humans and animals have adapted and flourished for thousands of years in the vast ice wilderness of the Arctic.
