Set to World Premiere at Fantasia this year, KC Carthew’s (The Sun at Midnight) new movie Polaris has been previewed with a teaser trailer today, and it’s one you don’t want to miss.

Viva Lee, Khamisa Wilsher and Muriel Dutil star in Polaris, which has been described by Carthew as “Mad Max in the Artic.” Variety debuted the teaser today, which you’ll find below.

In Polaris, “Set in 2144 against the harsh backdrop of a frozen wasteland, Sumi, a human child raised by Mama Polar Bear, narrowly escapes capture from a brutal Morad hunting party and sets out across the vast winter landscape.

“When Sumi stumbles across Frozen Girl, an unlikely friendship is forged and together they race ahead of the vindictive hunters towards the only guiding light Sumi knows, the Polaris star.”

Director KC Carthew also describes Polaris as being an “origin story of a world gone to shame.” As well as a film that “builds from themes of environmental stewardship/horror.”

Max Fraser, Paul Cadieux, KC Carthew & Alyson Richards produced the film.
