Project Description

70 million years ago, during the Cretaceous Period, the Earth teemed with dinosaurs. Generation after generation swept the land, some reaching the far-flung North and South Poles. Centering on Nook, an infant carnivorous Nanuqsaurus, and Fal, an infant herbivore Alaskacephale, the film depicts the strange fate and curious bond between these two different species originally never supposed to cross paths. You will discover the story behind the dinosaurs that thrived in the polar regions in ancient times under the beautiful skies of Alaska, where the brilliant Northern Lights shine while delving into fascinating astronomical topics such as the relationship between the Earth and the Moon, rotation and revolution, the tilt of the Earth’s axis, and the reason behind the gorgeous Northern Lights themselves!
