Description

Six centuries ago, a girl named Maïna-daughter of the clan leader of the Presque Loups-embarked on a mission that would change her life. After a violent confrontation between her clan and the “Men from the Land of Ice,” the young son of Maïna’s fellow tribesman is captured and taken to the frozen north. She sets out on the trail of her enemies to recover him, until she is taken prisoner herself by the Inuit clan leader Natak, and is taken on a perilous journey to her captor’s homeland where she must discover her inner strength in order to survive. In Person: Director Michel Poulette and actress Roseanne Supernault.
