Wild Bill's Run

Wild Bill’s Run follows a ragtag crew of Minnesotans on a grueling expedition across the polar ice in 1972. At the height of the Cold War, their goal was to snowmobile 5000 miles from Minnesota to Moscow. After the expedition fizzled out, their leader Bill Cooper turned back to a life of crime. He was named one of America’s Ten Most Wanted before he mysteriously disappeared.
