If someone dies in your home, few people know that it's up to you to clean up the mess left behind... so they call Tom Cutler. Tom is a 'Cleaner,' a man who removes every trace of the blood, smell, and stains, but most importantly, Tom considers himself the man who removes the grief, by erasing all the reminders of a tragedy. Slowly. Methodically. Painstakingly. Not a hint remains. In Cleaner, Tom must make a choice. He can either bury his own past, or once and for all, come clean...

In the wild, frozen world of the Artic, a new ancestral cycle starts each year: a cycle of birth, death and renovation, of love and life, of self-sacrifice and extreme risk.

The mothers defend their offspring with all of the strength endowed upon them by nature. A creation from National Geographic Films, the producers of March of the Penguins and of Paramount Classics, the studio responsible for producing An Inconvenient Truth, an epic adventure exploring the vast world of the North Pole.
