Here is a fantastic story set in humble, quotidian surrounds, with black forests, frozen lakes, wolf packs, and half Indian, half-Eskimo inhabitants. A man, having committed a murder, attempts to elude capture by retreating north. He is followed by a policeman and the mutual obsession with the hunt creates a peculiar bond between them. Without ever having seen each other, they live together in the great white wilderness. Then, instictively, the criminal senses the policeman is no longer there and yet he is beset with anxiety. He retraces until discovering the cop in his tent, dying. They sense their likeness to each other; their apparent twinness. When the policeman dies, the crim assumes his identity and insinuates himself into the man's life. And he nearly accomplishes the complete make-over!
