“POLAR HORIZON” is a journey exploring the majestic beauty and wild untamability of the Arctic regions of Svalbard and Iceland.

The film follows the adventures of a group of explorers and filmmakers, led by the narrator, as they embark on a respectful and contemplative journey into these remote lands, where the human being is a guest in a realm dominated by nature.

In Svalbard, the group navigates through ice and wildlife aboard a sailboat, immersing themselves in an environment where whales, polar bears, reindeers, walruses, and seals reign supreme. Using both traditional and modern techniques, they traverse ice packs, climb mountains, and ski down slopes all the way down to the sea, establishing a respectful dialogue with the wildlife.
The close encounter with a polar bear becomes a moment of joy mixed with awe, symbolizing the power and fragility of the Arctic environment.
