Product Description

is a compelling film by a husband and wife of their five-month 1000-mile trek from the central Yukon to coastal Alaska and back as they follow the Porcupine herd. They start out their journey as any young and adventurous couple would - with a confidence and zeal out of scale to the immensity of their undertaking.As the trip unfolds they become more and more deeply immersed in the rhythms of the herd and the land. There is a moment late in their trip when you actually feel the shift in their psyches when they feel a deep peace with their surrounding harsh environment. That is a tender moment of surrender to forces greater than us. Their film depicts the beauty of the region and makes a strong case for its continued protection. In particular the film makes the case that the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWAR) needs continued protection from oil and gas development.The couple environmentalist Leanne Allison and wildlife biologist Karsten Heuer follow the through a wild and remote landscape skiing across mountains swimming icy rivers and traveling through swarms of mosquitoes. They encounter grizzly bears wolves and other wildlife. Hunger fatigue and pain as well as awe-inspiring beauty are part of both their journey and the film.This is a film of beauty and courage.System Requirements:Running Time: 72 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: DOCUMENTARIES/NATURE & WILDLIFE UPC: 683904700148 Manufacturer No: MV70014
