Info
The film describes the last journey of Willem Barentsz and Jacob van Heemskerk through 1596-1597 when they and their crew tried to discover the North East passage to the Indies. However due to the sea ice, they stranded on the island of Nova Zembla and had to spend the winter there in Het Behouden Huys (The Preserved House). The story is told through the eyes of Gerrit de Veer, and is loosely based on the famous diary he published in 1598 after his safe return. Gerrit is portrayed as having a relationship with the daughter of the astronomer, cartographer and reverend Petrus Plancius, who pioneered the concept of the North East passage to reach the Indies. The Novaya Zemlya effect, first described by De Veer, is shown in the film, albeit in a non-historial fashion.
