As the last glimmers of light fade from the snow-covered peaks and polar night arrives, Grim the Finnish Lapphund finds himself lost in the vast Arctic. On this unexpected journey, he encounters mischievous arctic foxes, reindeer huddled in the snow, and bright-white beluga whales rising from the fjord. But danger lingers too – is that a polar bear in the distance… or just its tracks?

Beneath a sky filled with stars and shimmering northern lights, Grim finds the courage to keep moving forward. To make his way home – and back to Cecilia – he must face his fears and follow his heart through the darkness.
