Im Land der weißen Wölfe

SWR, ARTE

They are shrouded in legend, but hardly anyone has ever seen them: the white wolves of Ellesmere Island.
As famous adventurer Arved Fuchs and his team venture a dog sled expedition to the northernmost island in the Canadian Arctic, they suddenly appear and accompany them through ice and snow at temperatures down to minus 35 degrees.
This documentary tells the story of a unique encounter.
