It is bright day around the clock and on the Arctic islands animals come to the light: in front of Svalbard polar bears go hunting for seals, and walruses lay huddled close together. Black and white thick-billed murres breed on the rocks - the cliffs shield them from predators until the fledglings are fledged and go into the ice-cold sea three weeks later. On Ellesmere island in the north of Canada, musk oxen move through the tundra. Hungry polar wolves do not shrink from attacking some of the huge artiodactyls in order to get fresh meat for their offspring. In the west of Iceland, Atlantic puffins raise their young ones on a promontory more than 450 meters high. The real element of the "clowns of the seas" is the ocean, and on a dive they catch up to ten fish. This documentary shows the manifold survival strategies of the well adjusted Arcitc species: how they gain new energy and how they ensure the continued existence of their races before the polar night reigns again.
