Each winter a monstrous beast lures men and women to the ice of Lake Winnebago. It is the only place on the planet where this occurs. “The Frozen Chosen” introduces you to the obsessed men and women who are willing to wait days, years, even decades to propel their spears and bring you face-to-face with the prize below.

The movie is set to debut on Thursday night in Fond du Lac, WI.

Wisconsin Documentarian and Producer of “The Frozen Chosen” Steve Boettcher is a five-time, Emmy-winning filmmaker. His current work includes producing and directing PBS’s national series Pioneers of Television, now in its fourth season.
