Filmed from a drone above a snowy mountain slope — and the chase is already running when we join it. Two mountain hares are bounding side by side at full speed, ears swept back, snow spraying at every leap. Behind them, on the very same line, a red fox gallops in its thick winter coat — close enough to keep them running, but never close enough: the same long stretch of empty snow stays between them the whole way.
The hares know this slope better. They swerve toward a wall of giant boulders and, one after the other, slip into a narrow dark gap between the rocks — a doorway just wide enough for a hare. The fox arrives a moment later, lowers its head to the opening, paws at the snow beside it… and stops. Some gaps a fox simply cannot follow through. It stands before the rocks, looking into the dark, while somewhere inside the mountain the hares are already safe.
