But Toklo does not welcome Lusa. Why would he want a black bear for a friend? Meanwhile, Kallik, a young polar bear, searches alone for her lost brother. She knows she must find the place where the spirits dance above endless ice. But the way is filled with danger, and Kallik needs all her courage to follow nature's path. Lusa, Toklo and Kallik discover their real strength lies in friendship. Only together will they survive the quest through the harsh wilderness. 9 yrs+
