A nature documentary about Arctic foxes is set to have its premiere at the Matsalu film festival in Estonia, according to Estonian public broadcaster ERR's news programme "Aktuaalne Kaamera".

The film is a joint production involving Estonia, Germany and Sweden. Despite the international collaboration, the key creative roles in the production team belong to Estonian filmmakers.

European recognition

Even before its premiere, the film has already earned international attention, having recently been named among the best nature films produced in Europe.

Following a young vixen

The film follows a young female Arctic fox as its main character. Her journey begins in the tundra of northern Scandinavia, then continues through mountainous terrain before leading to the coast of the Barents Sea.

Through this journey, the documentary offers a look at the life and movement patterns of this Arctic predator species as it navigates the harsh conditions of its northern habitat.
