THE GREAT COUNTRY
Edgar Monsanto Queeny
United States / 1958 / 35'
"Big Country" is the name the Indians gave to Alaska (famously five times the size of Italy). Here precisely, where everything is great - the mountain, the glacier, the bear, the walrus -, a scientific mission repeatedly flies over the mountainous and volcanic regions, where lakes that never freeze are spread out; then, having established a camp - base, it goes up a river to minutely observe the behavior of the bear and the red salmon.
