Synopsis
Wolves are back! Having been exterminated in the Broumov region in the Czech Republic more than two hundred years ago, wolves have been slowly returning to the countryside and changing the lives of the locals. The documentary “Wolves at the Borders” looks at the contradictory reactions to their arrival: while for some people they offer hope of making the nature healthier, others see them only as enemies killing helpless farm animals who cannot be effectively protected. Are we able to coexist with wolves and with each other?
