So, 'Keep Frozen' is certainly an interesting documentary. It captures a frigid moment in Reykjavík when a massive factory trawler docks, piled high with boxes of frozen fish. The atmosphere is thick with urgency; you've got just 48 hours to unload this ship before it's back to the freezing depths. It’s all about the grit and determination of the crew, working against the clock in a freezing compartment that sits at a biting -35°C. The pacing really immerses you in the tension of the task at hand, while the practical effects of the cold and the sheer volume of fish create a visceral experience. You really feel the weight of each box, and the film evokes a certain respect for the labor behind the industry.
