Kingdom of the Polar Bears

Under the glow of the northern lights, a mother polar bear raises two young cubs in one of the harshest environments on Earth. Trekking across 80 kilometres of frozen tundra they face wolverines, hungry male polar bears and packs of wolves in a quest to return to their winter hunting ground. This is a rare glimpse into a beautiful frozen world and the life of one of the world’s most iconic animals living on the edge.

They must quickly learn to hunt seals on the frozen pack ice to put on weight before the ice recedes once again.

This beautifully shot film gives a glimpse into a never before seen world, the life of an iconic and mysterious predator, all playing out under epic frozen scenes and magical northern lights. Polar bear numbers in Hudson Bay have dropped by 20% in the last 5 years. Their hunting grounds are shrinking, and the ice is no longer reliable, the largest land predator on Earth faces an uncertain future.
