What Drives the Reindeer Across the Ice at -60°C? | The Tundra’s Annual Crossing

What Drives the Reindeer Across the Ice at -60°C? | The Tundra’s Annual Crossing

No narration. Just wind, hooves, and breath in the Arctic dark.
Follow a nomadic family as they guide a vast reindeer herd across frozen rivers and whiteout tundra at -60°C. Watch the chum (skin tent) rise against the storm, the narta sled cut over ice, the lariat fly, and the testing rod read the river before the final push to lichen pastures.

Shot like a cinematic documentary, this film distills the annual reindeer migration into raw moments of survival and precision: route-finding on ice, driving the herd through snow corridors, building shelter in blizzard winds, and safeguarding a child by the glow of a reindeer-fat lamp. Inspired by traditions of Arctic reindeer herders (e.g., Nenets and Sámi), it honors real skills—lasso control, sled logistics, ice assessment, herd flow—that keep people and animals moving through deep winter.
