Alaska is at the same time the largest state of the USA, area-wise, and the most sparsely populated state. It's also the state with the highest per capita number of missing persons, and the state with the most savage local Bigfoot legends. So can the high number of persons gone missing in any way be related to Bigfoot, to whom the vast unpopulated areas of the state should be the perfect habitat. The surprising answer this documentary comes up with is, no!  Outside the urban areas, Alaska is full of natural predators, including all sorts of bears and wolves, animals that are known to on occasion attack and kill people. Furthermore off the beaten track nature provides all sorts of natural death traps, plus snow storms and sudden changes in weather contribute to making Alaska a rather hostile state for humans. That said, at least in theory it would be ideal Bigfoot hunting ground, and the area sure has its own Bigfoot stories and plenty of them, and filmmaker Seth Breedlove has made it his mission to track down some of them, reaching from eye witness testimony to conspiracy theories involving the gouvernment, UFOs and a dark pyramid, and he even goes on a(n albeit unsuccessful) Bigfoot stake-out.

In yet another chapter to cover all aspects of Bigfoot lore, filmmaker Seth Breedlove once more shows his qualities as a documentarian, inasmuch as he's not deterred when his theory - that Bigfoot is responsible for all these missing persons cases - is proven wrong, and he freely admits he didn't find a "smoking gun". But what he did find are yet more fascinating stories, almost certainly not all true, to pin down the oral history that makes the legend. All this is combined by beautiful camerawork that makes the beauty, the vastness, but also the harshness of Alaska palpable. And all of this combined results in a rather fascinating movie.
