In 1992, intrepid explorer Ann Bancroft and a team of female crew members -- three of whom are lesbians -- set out to cross Antarctica on skis. Due to homophobia, as well as stagnant thinking from many potential sponsors who don't believe a group of women can accomplish such an arduous task, the event almost doesn't take place. The film includes interviews with team members, video footage and entries from Bancroft's diaries detailing how the women got their funding and made history.
