Synopsis:
Everyone knows the name but few people have ever seen
one. This film explores the "Devil Beast" of reputation, but
also the real animal being discovered by current research. We watch
two young wolverines grow up in front of the camera as a biologist gets
close to her subjects trying to crack the mysteries of wolverine behaviour.
By documenting ongoing research and exploring native legends through
animation, we meet the myth and the real animal. Surprisingly, for or
all its fabled toughness, the wolverine is made vulnerable by its own
character.
