Summary After ninety years let it finally be known that the Cold War did not end without fire and the blood of our fathers and grandfathers was spilled on Communist Russian soil. Told in the haunting words of the young soldiers themselves, Emmy-Nominated, award-winning documentary filmmaker Pamela Peak takes us on an emotional journey inside the hearts and minds of a group of young American soldiers as they faced one of the toughest missions in American history fighting the early Communists (known as Bolsheviks) in Northern Russia in 1918. Those that survived called themselves The Polar Bears. Voices of a Never Ending Dawn is not a political film or simply a "war documentary". It is a touching human story about a group of 5,500 young Americans (mostly draftees) sent to fight under the most impossible conditions ever assigned to a unit of American soldiers. The film includes dramatic re-enactment scenes shot on location in upper Michigan during a five-day blizzard and sub-zero temperatures that strongly resemble the exact conditions these young Americans found themselves in.
