Vladimir Markovich Sanin (1929-1989) wrote about people who chose a difficult and dangerous road in life - polar explorers, firefighters, travelers. And he himself belonged to the same restless human breed: very young Sanin had time to take part in the Great Patriotic War, after the war he graduated from the Faculty of Economics of Moscow State University, worked in the newspaper, became a writer, more than once visited the Arctic Circle, in the Arctic and Antarctic. The plots of his works are often based on real events, develop in non-trivial circumstances and closed communities (such as a ship crew or an avalanche station). The book includes the famous cycle "The Call of the Polar Latitudes", consisting of five novels, and the novel "White Curse", screened in 1987. Vladimir Sanin's prose has inspired filmmakers more than once: it is worth mentioning here the picture "Seventy-two degrees below zero" (1976) and the three-part TV movie "Antarctic Story" (1979).
