Season 1 Episode 8 : Les conquérants des pôles

For many years, the conquest of the poles has been a real competition: many have tried, many have failed, sometimes so close to the goal. Today, the challenge is no longer to reach the Arctic and Antarctic, but rather to study these two regions and find the real reasons for the melting ice. Witness a century of conquest and follow in the footsteps of those courageous pioneers who tried, sometimes at the cost of their lives, to reach the ice pack.
