As winter takes over the European Arctic, it turns into an unrecognizable place, cold and dark. Throughout the polar night, the north feels removed from all human life, uninhabitable, just like the moon. And yet, it is home to people born in faraway lands. What has brought them here? What keeps them here, immersed in darkness?

From a human point of view, a mountain is a barrier and a place of passage. Mountains have always been natural frontiers between territories. Nuno Escudeiro collected stories in Briançon, in the French High Alps, and in the Susa Valley, in the western part of Piedmont, and to these he added home movies from the Superottimisti Archivo di Film di Famiglia.
