The Head

Shot in Tenerife

The long, dark Antarctic months, the cold, the wind and the vast extensions of ice together with the feeling of loneliness and claustrophobia are the distinctive features of this fiction, which consists of six 50-minute episodes. The plot of The Head, with dialogues in English and Danish, is set at the international station Polaris VI, on the Antarctica. A reduced group of scientists from different countries is in charge of keeping the base in operation during the long polar night. But at the height of winter, the station stops all communication with the exterior. ​​
