On the outskirts of Tromsø, reindeer and sheep herders are preparing for the busiest time of the year. In late spring calves and lambs are born, which keep the herders alert day and night. This documentary shows the love and care the herders have for their animals, the need to protect their animals from predators in nature, and the struggles they are facing living and herding in the periphery of a growing city.
