The leader (Conway Tearle) of a polar expedition in an airship discovers his wife (Virginia Valli) is having an affair with his friend, (Ricardo Cortez) who is also on the expedition. After the airship crashlands only the two of them end up surviving but when the plane finds them it can only rescue one of them. The plot is nothing original and the acting is not great, the best part is the people wandering round antartica. Whilst th effects are not good by modern standards, but are fine by the standards of the late 1920's.
