Nastali temné časy pre Povstanie. Aj napriek tomu, že Hviezda smrti bola zničená, jednotky impéria vyhnaly Rebelov z ich tajnej základne a prenasledovali ich po celej Galaxii. Aby sa vyhla stretu s hrôzostrašnou flotilou impéria, skupina slobodných pilotov vedená Lukom Skywalkerom vybudovala novoú tajnoú základňu na opustenej ľadovej planéte Hothu. Imperátorov pobočník Darth Vader, posadlý hľadaním mladého Skywalkera, však vyslal tisíce sond do všetkých kútov vesmíru.
In Antarctica, an artist prepares his installation simultaneously with a group of scientists conducting research. An essay on the persistence and loneliness of the creative act; like the flight of a butterfly in chaos theory or a silent prayer. A sensory experience. A visual poem made of ice, snow and wind.
Two parallel stories are gradually unfolding the everyday life of two very different persons - that of 86-year-old Sara and 7-year-old Mihka - both residing in Guovdageaidnu - Kautokeino, in the middle of the Norwegian arctic tundra, through the drastic change of the arctic seasons and the passage from the long winter’s darkness to the never-ending light of the summer season.
The Arctic is accessible to man only because of ice dogs. As hunters, haulers, and guardians, they have been our vital link to nature for thousands of years. Dogs led the Sarqaq people out of Siberia and, a millennium later, led explorers to the North Pole. As the light returns to Greenland, we arrive in Scoresbysund with a troop of the only companions worth having in this harsh environment.
