Prince Of The Alps

September in the Alps. Summer has long fled the mountain meadows. In the high valleys, the morning mists carry a scent of peat and the sheer cliffs reflect the echo of mighty voices. The mightiest stags assemble their harems and defend them against rivals. Who will be the mothers and who the fathers of the next generation?

This stunning documentary portrays the biggest species in Central Europe with beautiful vistas of untouched nature depicting the dangers of life a young calf has to face as hunters like bears and wolves as well as an overbearing human presence intrude into their habitat.
