[english]

to howl with the wolves. do we want that? really? well: let us try. thus we move with nicolas perret and cédric anglaret to an isolated village in karelia.

"Isolated in the thick primary forest of oriental Karelia, Paanajärvi has somehow fallen out of the time. Its inhabitants, the last custodians of the disappearing Karelian culture, live a tough life that is strongly bond to the nature surrounding them.

Winters are harsh in Paanajärvi. At this latitude, the sun doesn’t show much and temperatures remain way below freezing for many months. As winter progresses food gets rare for the wolves. Out of the forest they approach the village at night to attack dogs, that the villagers try to protect by all means. As long as dogs are barking the wolves are still far; once they are silent they are nearby. In the winter of 2012, 23 dogs were eaten by the wolves in Paanajärvi." [N.P. & C.A.]

afterwards, together with the performers from "the wolf and the winter" ralf wendt will set out for a pigrimage to'n'through greenland.
