In this two-part documentary, Ewan McGregor is on a mission to the ends of the earth to immunise some of the hardest-to-reach children in the world. Against the odds, health workers deliver vaccines to the world's most remote children. But their fragile nature means the vaccines must be kept constantly cold as they are passed along the supply chain, from freezer to freezer. The routes these vaccines travel are known as cold chains. Ewan is following three of these cold chains, supported by Unicef. In the first episode, Ewan chooses a route that takes him through India. In a country with a booming population, often on the move, the cold chain is a race against time to stop polio before it can enter the country and spread. From India, Ewan continues his journey into the isolated wilderness of Nepal. He must endure a gruelling two-day trek to reach a tiny community secluded high in the Himalayas, but not before attempting to land at one of the world's most dangerous airstrips.
