Sinopsis(1)
Tyler, un experto biólogo e investigador, viaja a los desolados parajes del Norte de Canadá, lindante con el Ártico, para investigar las extrañas muertes de caribús -un tipo de reno- que se están produciendo en la zona, y de las que todo el mundo culpa a los lobos que la habitan. Una vez allí, organiza un plan, con la ayuda de Osket, un enigmático esquimal, para intentar localizar a los lobos, lo que logra al poco tiempo. Pero pronto descubre que no son los lobos, sino cazadores furtivos los que diezman las manadas de renos. Carol Ballard (que ya conquistó a crítica y público con "El corcel negro", The Black Stallion, 1979) dirige este film pseudocumental de gran calidad artística que obtuvo excepcionales críticas.

I can’t remember for the life of me the Czech title it received when it was shown on TV 7 or 8 years ago, but to this day I still have a vivid memory of this excellent film. The story of a scientist who travels to remote parts of Alaska to study the life of wolves. Truly beautiful cinematography, an interesting script, and a deeply thought-provoking film with many memorable scenes. Although it was produced by Walt Disney Studios, it's far from family entertainment.

Further proof that natural and animal laws should be placed much higher than human ones. 100 minutes of pure nostalgia in the form of beautiful shots of a still unspoiled part of our planet, while also a story carrying an important and appealing natural message that every person should know about and respect. It’s a great pity this the film is so unknown.
