Inspired by true events.
Greenland, 1909. Josephine Peary is a mature, proud, determined and naive woman, in love with celebrated Arctic adventurer Robert Peary, a man who prefers glory and ice to the comforts of an upper-class home. For him she will face all danger, even risk her own life. Another woman, young but wise, brave and humble – Allaka – is in love with the same man, and expecting his child. The relentless icy landscape both separate and draw these two women together during the long, tense wait for the man they both love in such different ways.
Nobody Wants the Night is a story replete with the passion, dignity and strength of these two women as they battle to survive in one of the most inhospitable places on earth.
