Shackleton and Scott were men with a common goal - the South Pole. However, divisions between them grew as jealousy and intrigue intensified their rivalry. This intriguing documentary draws upon a collection of historical knowledge to investigate the social setting and psychology of these men who dramatically, and fatally, pushed the limits of human endurance.
