The story

A brilliant biology student, Richard Forbush, is sent to Antarctica for six months to study a penguin colony. At first he does it mostly to impress a girl he is chasing, Tara. He stays in Shackleton's Hut with his only links to the outside world being a two-way radio to contact the navy who occasionally visit to deliver supplies and take his letters and tape recordings to Tara.
