This Swiss documentary examines the disappearance of Konrad Steffen, a prominent polar researcher who vanished in August 2020 while working in Greenland. While traveling to a measuring station, Steffen is believed to have fallen into a snow-covered crevasse. The film explores the lasting impact of his absence on his family and colleagues, noting that no trace of him was ever found. It also addresses the environmental instability of the Greenland ice sheet, which eventually forced the closure of the Swiss Camp due to dangerous melting and expanding fissures.
Directed and written by Corina Gamma, the film features archive footage of Konrad Steffen. The production was handled by tellfilm, SRF, and SRG SSR. It has a total runtime of 91 minutes.
