Synopsis

Through the lens of Soviet filmmaker and naturalist Yuri Ledin, a glimpse is offered into the stark beauty and profound isolation of Wrangel Island. Situated three hundred miles from the Alaskan coast, this remote territory, once under Soviet control, is a haven for wildlife. Here, Siberian snow geese, polar foxes, and walruses thrive, while the island holds the distinction of being the world's largest polar bear denning ground.
