A delicate balance between being a nature, ethnographic and environmental documentary, this is a film that I urge all Quebecois to watch. Beautifully shot and deeply immersing the viewer into the life of both the Inuit peoples and the eider ducks of Sanikiluaq, Nunavut, this film profoundly inspired me to take action in solidarity and support of the communities and sea ice ecosystems in Hudson Bay, and I hope it will do the same for you,

Stunningly filmed, viewers are patiently shown the time immemorial symbiotic relationship between the ducks and the peoples and how this interconnection has been severely degrading over the last 100 years, in large part due to the development of the Hydro-Quebec dam projects in the Arctic. A much needed tool for any conversation about how we, in Quebec, receive the daily energy we use, who is impacted and at what environmental costs, The film is a gorgeous reminder that everything is connected, and that thousands of kilometers of distance should not be a reason to avoid this profound truth.
