Determined to turn his own death into a final performance, a young artist designs a chilling act on the year's longest day. He encases himself in a block of ice, intending to melt it with his body heat until hypothermia claims him, calling the stunt “Funeral on Ice” a protest against society’s cold indifference. Based on a true story.
