DESCRIPTION:directed by Werner Herzog(USA\, 2005)  97 min\nWerner Herzog 
 takes his camera to Antarctica where we meet the odd men and women who hav
 e dedicated their lives to furthering the cause of science in treacherous 
 conditions. A scientist studies neutrinos\, which are everywhere\, yet elu
 sive\; he likens them to spirits. A researcher's nighttime performance art
  includes contorting her body into a luggage bag. A survival guide teaches
  his students to survive white-out conditions by wearing cartoon-face buck
 ets over their heads. Animal researchers milk mother seals as part of thei
 r study. Volcanologists offer advice on what to do when a volcano erupts. 
 A pipefitter shows us the anomaly in his hands that he says are a sign he 
 descended from Atzec royalty. And\, though Herzog declares he's not "makin
 g another film about penguins"\, we meet a penguin researcher who answers 
 the filmmaker's questions about homosexuality and insanity in his subjects
 . We also meet an individualist penguin\, who breaks away from the other b
 irds to run toward the mountains\, facing certain death.\nOriginal version
