Beskrivelse
Discover the gripping true story of Ejnar Mikkelsen's Arctic survival, brought to life in a Netflix film co-adapted by actor Nikolaj Coster-Waldau. This classic tale follows Mikkelsen's daring expeditions across Greenland's harsh landscapes.
An unforgettable account of resilience and exploration in the Arctic wilderness.
Ejnar Mikkelsen (1880-1971) was an experienced explorer who ventured into Arctic Greenland, Siberia, and Alaska before leading the ill-fated Alabama expedition. Despite the challenges he faced, Mikkelsen returned to Greenland multiple times, heading expeditions in 1925 and 1932 to this rugged, remote region.
His final journey to that unforgiving stretch of coast took place in 1964, by which time the Greenlanders affectionately called him "Grandfather." This enduring connection highlights the respect he earned throughout his life.
The story was adapted into a Netflix feature film by Danish actor and producer Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, who also stars in the movie. Known widely for his role in Game of Thrones, Coster-Waldau is a UNDP Goodwill Ambassador, using his platform to raise awareness about gender equality and climate change.
The book includes a foreword written by Coster-Waldau, adding personal insight into this incredible Arctic survival story.
