Eight below [videorecording] / Walt Disney Pictures presents in association with Spyglass Entertainment a Mandeville Films production, a film by Frank Marshall ; produced by David Hoberman, Patrick Crowley ; screenplay by David DiGilio ; directed by Frank Marshall.

Summary:

An American geologist flies to Antarctica to participate in a project at the United States Research Base. Once there, he teams up with arctic guide Jerry Shepard and his best friend, Cooper. The scientist soon discovers that Shepard also has eight other valuable friends -- a pack of sled dogs he's worked with for years, who have rescued him from a number of tight spots. As the three men explore a frozen mountain region, an unexpected accident coupled with a massive storm front forces them to fly to safety, leaving the dogs behind. Shepard is determined to rescue his canine friends, but he has to wait until the weather will allow him to travel back to the mountain. Now, the dogs must struggle against the elements to survive as they attempt to make their way back home.
