The Arctic, a ocean of ice, pristine and unsullied
In recent years, the North Pole has become a barometer of the global environment: so fragile and, paradoxically, such immense power.

And at the heart of this dialogue between land and sea, the wildlife, superlative in its untamed splendour. A tale of a singular and unique expedition.
