In the movie, Jerry with his team of 8 Huskies at a base in New Zealand serves as a guide to a scientist on an expedition to collect a meteorite rock. The weather makes conditions dangerous for the expedition, but the scientist insists on continuing with the expedition: "You got to take chances for the things you care about", he says. On that journey marred by severe conditions, Jerry, with help from his dogs, twice saves the scientist's life. All make it back to the station; however, both the scientist and Jerry are injured on the journey. So the team evacuates the base and flies back to the US, leaving the 8 dogs behind for lack of room in the plane. Back in the US, Jerry wants to go back to the base to get the dogs but finds no pilot ready to fly him there. Later, a conversation with the person who had raised the 8 dogs intensifies his desire to get to the dogs. "You got to take chances for the things you care about", Jerry insists, packing for the trip. A change of heart sees the scientist and his other 2 team members join him on the expedition. The movie ends with them reaching the dogs and bringing them back.
