The film is based on the true experience of biologist Farley Mowat. In order to investigate whether arctic wolves would threaten the survival of the deer herd, biologists came to the North Pole alone, and after a short ups and downs, they successfully stationed opposite the wolf den to observe the life of the wolves. The irony is that the arctic wolf not only does not threaten the deer herd, but even the deer are difficult to catch. It is only an expert at catching voles, and the deer...

This film dramatizes the true story of Farley Mowat, when he was sent to the Canadian tundra area to collect evidence of the grievous harm the wolf population was allegedly doing to the caribou herds. In his struggle to survive in that difficult environment he studies the wolves , and realizes that the old beliefs about wolves and their supposed threat are almost totally false. Furthermore, he learns that humans represent a far greater threat to the land, and also to the wolves, a species...

There are very old old discs in the house. When I was packing my things, I accidentally took them out and looked at them.
Placed in the snowy wilderness, the young natural scientist watches the plane disappear beyond the horizon. He seemed so lonely in the whole environment, and after the plane disappeared, the whole world was almost quiet.
The entire film creates a desolate environment, where the endless snow makes it seem small and insignificant. Then, when spring arrives,...

Very good documentary. The protagonist lived alone in the polar regions for almost a year, came to the conclusion that wolves were not the culprits of destroying nature, and was angry at the sudden appearance of hunters. Several scenes are like dreams. Are there really Inuit people? Did he really run naked among deer and...

Tyler: [Narrating] The only plane in Nootsak belonged to a part-time bush pilot, gambler, and real estate tycoon named Rosie Little. While we were negotiating our deal, he introduced me to this drink that he'd invented. Known locally as "Moose Juice," it consisted of equal parts Moose Brand Beer and ethyl alcohol. Before I knew it, my old fear of flying evaporated, and I spent all the money I had left... on 24 cases of beer.

Rosie: [Sitting with some hunters at a canopied camp table] All together, one thousand four hundred acres, top of the mountain down to the lake. Including mineral rights. But... the real ace in the hole, right now, is the hot spring, right up there. Amazing. Incredible: steaming hot water coming right out of the ground. When I say "hot water," what do you think?
Rosie: [the other two men are silent] Sitting in the bathtub?... Japanese! A little bit of advertising, plenty of raw fish...
Hunter #1: [Chuckling] It's a beautiful country, all right. Limitless possibilities... Japanese?... That's a great angle, Rosie.
Rosie: Now, wait - you haven't heard the best part. Listen to this: once they soak their little buns in our magic, medicinal hot spring, you bottle it up, stick a fancy label on it, and they take it home with them. Before you know it, we'll be shipping it out of here by the truckload. What's it cost us? Nothing! It bubbles right up outta' the ground. I'll bet ya' we could figure out a way to bottle the air up here, too.
Hunter #2: Fantastic!
Rosie: Gentlemen, here's to the future.
[Just then a strong gust of wind picks their canopied table up off the ground and blows it into a nearby lake]

Old Inuit Song: [Seen on closing credits] I think over again my small adventures. My fears, those small ones that seemed so big. For all the vital things I had to get and to reach. And yet there is only one great thing. The only thing. To live to see the great day that dawns, and the light that fills the world. - Old Inuit Song
