At the North Pole, the colors come together in the sky, forming a huge white blanket. The mother bear and her cub play and take long dives into the icy sea. But with each passing day, the cities get closer and melt their home. The mother bear and her cub leave. Where to go? This is what we are going to find out. Global warming and sea pollution have become one of the biggest problems on Earth. From the story of a family of polar bears, art and the environment are combined through the manipulation of objects, puppets and projected shadows.
