Emma works as a courtroom illustrator and has had rather bad dating experiences. One day, she receives a cryptic message from her father—who researches penguins down at the South Pole—saying he needs help. Believing he’s in danger, she resolutely decides to go there. However, she doesn’t have permission to visit the South Pole, so she sneaks aboard a cruise ship heading that way. Onboard, she meets Andy, who is going there for a research project. He helps her hide from the crew. Once they arrive, the mission is to find her father.
I had higher expectations for this one, but it turns out a bit silly. Films in this genre aren’t meant to be seen as documentaries, of course, so you can’t expect the events to be very realistic — but this one was more far-fetched than usual. Rhiannon Fish usually delivers better, too.
