Cambio climático - "CHASING ICE" captures largest glacier calving ever filmed


Este fenómeno se denomina "el parto del glaciar", se ha tomado condensando 75 minutos reales en los 3 ó 4 que dura el vídeo.
El tipo del final compara el tamaño de la parte del glaciar que "pare" con la parte baja de la isla de Manhattan, y dice que la altura de lo que se mueve tan rápido es 2 ó 3 veces superior a los rascacielos.



 VERLO A PANTALLA COMPLETA

On May 28, 2008, Adam LeWinter and Director Jeff Orlowski filmed a historic breakup at the Ilulissat Glacier in Western Greenland. The calving event lasted for 75 minutes and the glacier retreated a full mile across a calving face three miles wide. The height of the ice is about 3,000 feet, 300-400 feet above water and the rest below water.

Chasing Ice won the award for Excellence in Cinematography at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival and the Best Documentary from the International Press Association. It has won over 30 awards at festivals worldwide. Still playing in theaters nationwide.
