| Plot: | 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 true facts of the fateful day in 1963 when, due to plunging temperatures and rough terrain,thousands of skaters suffered frostbite and shocking injuries. Only a small number would cross the finish-line, but for those who did, it was to be a life changing event! |

DATE: Actor Chris Zegers has a long hairdo. Story is from 1963: a long hairdo like Zegers was common after about 1966. DATE: In the opening you see a Volkswagen Beetle with big, round rear lights, which it defines it as a '72 or later model. DATE: There is a Citroën 2 CV which is a 1970 model (or later). DATE: In the film several gray telephones are used. This is the standard Dutch national telephone company-model PTT T65, which was introduced in 1965. DATE: In Chapter Two you can see the actor Chris Zegers in a living room. There is a table in the middle with an Elvis Presley record underneath. That record was released in 1968 (1977 in the Netherlands). However, the movie is set in 1963. DATE: The jeep used by the soldier to leave the camp has a yellow license plate which became common in the seventies/eighties. But is for real a army plate because of the characters KP. The big military vehicles do have gray plates but no army plates. |
