Gath & K'iyh: Listen to Heal
Gath and K’iyh is a poetic visual exploration of a community-led creative arts project aimed at better understanding and restoring our relationship with gath (king salmon) and k’iyh (birch) relatives as we navigate our feelings around climate change in Alaska. Gath and K’iyh are words from the Benhti Kokhut’ana Kenaga’ (Lower Tanana) dialect spoken in the Interior Region of Alaska. Guided by the voice and wisdom of Ahtna Elder Fred John, this film invites viewers to pause, to listen, to sing and dream together and ask how we might be in better relationship to the natural world around us.
Near the River
In the tourism town of Livingstone, Zambia, a group of local men who make their living portering kayaks aspire to become safety kayakers on the Zambezi River. The proposed Batoka Gorge Hydroelectric Scheme threatens to flood the famous rapids of the Zambezi, and eliminate river related jobs.
Philippe, A Lake and a Dream
A sedentary father issues an insane challenge to his daughter. This challenge will transform more than just their two lives. A crossing of Lac Saint-Jean that will go well beyond the initial 32 kilometres.
Return to Spur Lake: Bringing back the food that grows on water
There’s always been only a few special places in the world where wild rice (known as manoomin to the Ojibwe people), grows. Which made it troubling when manoomin stopped growing in the early 2000’s at Spur Lake, a 113 acre lake in Oneida County, Wisconsin.
Kodagu - Where Rivers Set the Rhythm
Nestled in the heart of the Western Ghats in India, Kodagu is a land where the rhythm of life is set by the flow of rivers. From the sacred Kaveri to the pristine forests, this region is a haven for biodiversity. In 2012, UNESCO declared multiple locations in the Western Ghats as World Heritage Sites. Five of these locations are in Kodagu. This video, made in collaboration with Karnataka Forest Department - Madikeri Wildlife Division, explores the magic of this special place, where every bend of the river reveals new habitats and fascinating stories.
