It has a great underlying message for all animal lovers, even all humans. It is a story of survival and companionship. What it IS, is a great, heart warming story. This was not made by The Discovery Channel or The Smithsonian Channel. Nor is it a teaching film to show how humankind lived x-number of years ago. This is not, and does not claim to be THE man-wolf bonding story. The young man nurses it back to life and they become companions, helping each other on the rest of the journey. He injures one of the wolves, whom is left by the pack. Along the way he is attacked by a pack of wolves. This is not, and was never meant to be a Documentary!! This is the story of a young man getting separated from his tribe and making a very long, arduous journey trying to get home. The folks who are rating this movie 1 or 2 stars seem to be archeologists (amateur, academic, or professional) and are having a tizzy that "Ice Aged Man was really black" or "the relationship between man and wolf happened much earlier and in China".

I just stumbled upon this move on one of the premium channels.
