The new doco Ice Maiden – co-directed by Nathaniel C.T. Jackson and James Blannin-Ferguson – is the gripping, edge-of-the-seat story of Aussie solo sailor and adventurer Lisa Blair, who daringly circumnavigated Antarctica on her own, non-stop, and with no physical assistance. From terrifying storms and near fatal collisions with looming ships to personal anguish and constant danger, it’s a story steeped in anxiety, but also in hope and inspiration, as the brave and uncompromising Lisa hurls herself at every obstacle with positive energy and a relentless will to win.
Ahead of its Australian theatrical release, Ice Maiden has been selected to screen at New Zealand’s highly regarded DocEdge Film Festival, which runs from June 19 to July 31, and features the best non-fiction filmmaking from around the world. Making its world premiere over four screenings, Ice Maiden will undoubtedly be one of the highlights of an already highlights-packed film festival.
