Directed by Ole Gjerstad
The fate of the arctic expedition by German geologist Hans Krüger, his assistant Age Rose Bjare and their Greenland Inuk guide Arqioq, which vanished somewhere in the frozen wilderness to the west of Ellsmere and Axel Heiberg islands in 1930, has obsessed travelers in Canada's north for 70 years. Filmmakers Henry Naulaq and Ole Gjerstad discover a dramatic new twist to the story. Naulaq, behind and in front of the camera, sets out on a search that take us from Greenland to Alaska and southern Canada to discover the truth about Aqioq, uncovering clues to substantiate rumours that Arqioq survived the expedition and was around when the Americans built their military base in Thule 20 years
