KIVALINA - trailer

Kivalina is a candid portrait of life 130 miles above the Arctic Circle of an Inupiaq Eskimo tribe living on an island disappearing into the ocean. Once a nomadic people, the film begins its telling a century after their ancestors were settled on the tiny island made of silt, sand, and permafrost. With no resources to move and only a precarious sea wall to protect them, the film poetically explores the community's struggle to maintain their way of life within a landscape and a system that is failing them. Weaving together observational storytelling and cinematic imagery Kivalina is an evocative and rare portrait of one of the last surviving Arctic cultures
