I was completely gripped on the edge of my seat, complete with dry mouth and clammy palms as I watched this unexpectedly good drama about survival, life and of course, death.

The wolves, the harsh environment, and the stillness added to the bleak poignancy of this film. Phew! Time to calm down, and get a drink. My nerves are fried....
