Synopsis
In late winter, a brown male wolf leads his pack through the snow-covered terrain in search of caribou. As spring approaches, he and his mate prepare for the birth of five pups. The film captures their hunting strategies, social dynamics, and parenting rituals. Wolves maintain a strict hierarchy, with the leaders eating first to ensure the pack's survival.
