Antarctica: A Year On Ice

Description
This feature-length film reveals what it is like to live and work at the bottom of the planet, in Antarctica, for a full year. The story is not from the point of view of scientists, but of the people who spend the most time there; the everyday workers who keep the stations running in the harshest place on the planet. Filmed over 15 years by Frozen Planet photographer Anthony Powell, the film features a unique insiders point of view, with unparalleled access, and never before seen stunning footage of the deep Antarctic winters.

Technically, it is far superior to an average installment of PBS's Nature, but it has the same general niceness and similar tacked-on messages.

Way too much screen time is given over to folks describing what it's like to live in such a place, as opposed to, you know, actually living there.
