The Hell of '63

When conditions are right, an infamous ice-skating race is held in the north of the Netherlands. The 200-km race must be completed by midnight and everyone who finishes receives a medal. This film is based on the facts of the fateful day in 1963 when thousands of skaters suffered frostbite and shocking injuries because of plunging temperatures and rough terrain. Only a small number would cross the finish line, but it would be a life-changing event for those who did.
