Ragnar
Axelsson, known as Rax, is a photograher for Iceland's largest
newspaper. This documentary follows him on his life's mission, to
capture the human faces of climate change by photographing the vanishing
lifestyles of the people of the north.

Rax is among the most
celebrated photographers in the world and his series of photographs,
Faces of the North, is a living document of the dying cultures of the
far northern reaches of the planet, mainly Icelandic farmers, fishermen
and the great hunters of Greenland.

'It was really only one
photograph that started me off,' he says. 'An old man in a rowing boat
and his dog on a skerry. I thought to myself, these men are vanishing.
If I don't photograph them now, no one will remember them and no one
will know that they ever existed.'

Rax spent his childhood
summers on an isolated farm on the southern coast of Iceland, where the
farmers lived off of the land as countless generations had before them.
As a child he was enraptured by the landscape and the interactions
between man and nature.

Twenty-five years ago, his fascination
with people who try to survive in extreme circumstances took him from
Iceland to Greenland - a place which has continually inspired him to
return.

His photo essays of the hunters of Greenland are
legendary. Rax could well have been a hunter himself - and we watch him
as he stalks his images and strikes at the opportune moment. Fascinated
by stories of half-forgotten people who have adapted to unspeakably
harsh conditions, Rax is now documenting them as they cope with extreme
changes to those conditions as the result of climate change.

Last
Days of the Arctic is a celebration of the photographer and his
subjects, an elegy for a disappearing landscape and the people who
inhabit it.
