Norway / 2018 / 70' / Italian premiere

A film about the encounter between Frost, a beautiful polar bear mother, her cubs and a Norwegian filmmaker, since their first encounter in 2013 in Svalbard, and their struggle for survival, as the ice is melting away at record speeds. Rising temperatures are responsible for dramatic changes in their ecosystem, but the beauty of the Arctic remains dazzling. While avoiding didactic and normative interpretations, the film is a reflection on man’s place on earth and an homage to life.
