Arnaldo Bellofiore

A seven-part miniseries that tells the story of the great writer Jack London and his adventure following the 1897 expedition to the Klondike. Filmed on location in the former Yugoslavia with a documentary style, this series contains all the narrative ingredients of the famous author of White Fang and The Call of the Wild: the frenzied gold rush, the snowy and inhospitable landscapes of many of his pages, and his visceral relationship with wolf dogs, protagonists of many stories.

Don Giorgio, a handsome young priest and teacher in a convent, is involved with two lovers: Orchidea and Giulia. When he repents and vows to return to the Church, he is savagely beaten to death. Not long after, Giulia has her throat slashed. Inspector Boito falls in love with and prepared to marry Orchidea, who is also the main suspect. The key to solving the case seems to lie with an inquisitive boy called Ferruccio, who is kept locked up and drugged. He witnessed one of the murders, but will anyone believe his story?
