About
An immersive film about everyday survival that explores the Inupiaq Eskimo village of Kivalina, located eighty miles above the Arctic circle. Due to melting ice, their island home is slowly vanishing into the ocean. With no funds to relocate the village, the tribe struggles to maintain their way of life.
