An adventure directed by Carroll Ballard, produced by Ron W. Miller of the Disney corporation.
A scientist goes out into the Arctic wilderness to see if wolves are really responsible for the decline in caribou population. He settles down for the summer near a family of wolves and watches them closely.
This is a lot like White Fang. In the beginning of the film, the main character spends all of his money to stock up on beer and accidentally drops his toilet paper out of the plane. Is this a good role model for Disney-watching kids? By the end of the film, we find out that many corrupt men are running shady business in the area, but the main character can do nothing about it, as he is only 1 man. This is an idea that is often enforced in the media to make us feel powerless, despite the fact that we are many and they are few (the corrupt men in the real world that is). I'm rating this adequate because it has good entertainment value, but the ideas involved are repulsive to me.
