Akademik Vernadsky Antarctic station by Volodymyr Khomko
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Fourteen scientists from Ukraine will spend a year at a scientific station on a small Antarctic island. Their task is to ensure the operation of the station and conduct scientific research. Isolation and harsh natural conditions have a huge impact on the work of polar explorers. They are also the subjects of the research. The expedition's doctor Vasyl Matkovsky monitors their health by conducting examinations and tests. Science in Ukraine is in crisis. The expedition's biologist, Serhiy Glotov, the discoverer of a new insect species, calls science his hobby, not a job, as it does not secure a decent living. Nevertheless, many people are trying to contribute to the development of science. An icebreaker has recently been purchased to conduct research of international importance. Will they be successful despite a full-scale war?
