EXTENSION ACTIVITY: WRITE A SEQUEL Directions: The events in Exposure represent a unique experience in the lives of the participants and also capture the Arctic at a pivotal moment in global climate history. This activity asks you to consider what will happen after these events, for both the women in the film and the world in general. Write an imagined “sequel” that takes place ten years after their 2018 expedition at a reunion between the women in the film. Things to consider: • • • • •
How will the women’s lives have unfolded after (and in response to) their trek to the North Pole? What events from the film would they be eager to reminisce about? What might this group do for a reunion? Would they attempt a second expedition? Where? How will the climate have changed in ten years? How would this affect the landscape and biodiversity? What changes will have taken place in international relations? Think of how international politics impacted their original expedition.
Write your sequel as either a short story, a play, or a film script. If you have time, consider performing your piece for your classmates or acting it out in a video.
