Taro, Jiro.

Mr Ozawa.

Such good boys.

Ochl, is everything fine?

His condition is serious.

Are you guys all right?

Ozaki, are you okay?

I'm doing fine.

Why don't you guys ride the sleighs

back to base?

Leave the dogs to us.

We're hoping to get back to the base

with the dogs all together.

Where's the SOUYA,

hasn't it arrived already?

SOUYA can't move, sir.

Mr Ochi, are you okay?

Yes, I'm fine.

My eyes are just stinging from

the cigarette smoke.

But isn't it great?

You three are doing fine.

Hey, good news.

Shiro's just had pups.

That's great.

Are they out already?

Still can't get too close to them yet.

At the end of December, 1957.

The SOUYA entered the glacier carrying

the Second Cross-Winter Expedition.

But when the new year arrived,

the weather had worsened considerably.

The SOUYA was stuck inside the pack ice

and couldn't get close to the base.

By February, the SOUYA finally called

the US icebreaker BURTON for help.

Sleigh? What did you say about the sleigh?

BURTON,

We are stranded and require

urgent assistance.

BURTON? You said BURTON, what is it?

Hello...

What is it with the BURTON now?

Magnetic storm again?

Yes.

Chief.

Did he mean that

the BURTON is stranded

in a dangerous area?

It sounds like it. Yes.

Am I hearing right?

Even the BURTON is unable to move.

It looks like that

this team isn't able to move either.

Taro...

- I'll go and get him.

- Good.

Wait a second.

Mr Ushioda.

If he goes on acting

like this,

the guy who is in charge of the dogs

on the second team

is going to have a hard time.

Good.

Alright.

Should we take a photo? Yes or no?

Come on everybody, let's gather outside

The Shouwa has arrived.

We're safe now.

Hey.

Hurry up and lead the plane here.

Is it here?

Hey, we've been waiting a long time.

Hey.

Hey.

We've waited long enough.

It's here...

Hey...

Hey.

Great!

Mr Nonomiya.

This has been a rough year for you.

I get to see you at last.

How is Mr Horigome?

He's fine.

To be honest, it has been decided that

everyone in this place

needs to leave today.

Leave?

You're not waiting

until someone else takes over?

This is the same as abandoning

the base and retreating.

This decision had been made

after Chief Horigome,

Captain Iwakiri and the planning

headquarters discussed the issue.

It's been decided.

I'm sorry, but can you all

please hurry?

I'll be at your assistance.

Unfortunately, we can only withstand

this type of weather for one day.

We'll transport the equipment

with a Beaver Plane.

Three of the team members will go

with it at the same time.

Hasegawa and Take will stay.

And they'll be responsible

for communication and machinery.
