2050

Kristof Van den Bergh, Eric Goens Belgium 2025 120 min.

Deep in Antarctica, where melting ice symbolises the looming climate crisis, Belgian climate scientists are mapping out - under extreme conditions - the alarming consequences of global warming. Their inquiry is a continuation of scientific research in the region, started by Belgian explorer Adrien de Gerlache in 1898 when he made history with his ship Belgica during the first wintering mission on the South Pole.

Director Eric Goens, known for television programmes Het Huis and Het Conclaaf, presents a confrontational portrait of a threatened landscape, filmed in temperatures as low as -30°C. Experts such as Alain Hubert and NASA glaciologist Eric Rignot share their insights on the disastrous impact of climate change on Antarctica and the urgent need for action. 2050 is a powerful plea for awareness, as the tipping point for our planet approaches.
