Lost in the Great North, two men are saved by the appearance of an old hunter who divulges a strange legend to them. Surrounded by wolves and fighting for their survival, two explorers head for Alaska to bury their companion… 1920s Japan and a man sets out to find the bear that killed his son… A marine biologist begins a quest to find the mythical whale graveyard. Six shorts with as many stories of men confronted with a savage nature, which is sometimes cruel, sometimes forgiving but always vast. Taniguchi at his award-winning best.
