In the heart of Greenland’s vast frozen wilderness, 12-year-old Pipaluk lives with her mother and brother in an isolated village. Her dream: to compete in the most prestigious dog sled race, a challenge reserved for the greatest mushers, all men. Mocked by her peers and ignored by her family, Pipaluk develops a friendship with an adorable husky puppy named Ashia, and finds an unexpected ally in Tulok, a solitary and enigmatic old hunter. Under Tulok’s guidance, she slowly opens to the wonders of nature, discovers the true reason for his support, and soon realises that their destinies are intertwined. Will Pipaluk find the strength to defy tradition and achieve the impossible?
