A Tempo

Living Waters is a journey through the Inuit way of life, rooted in the Arctic. David Nanuk, an elder from the Taloyoak community, repairs a stone fishing dam and passes on his knowledge, just as he received it from his ancestors.

James Simonee, an Inuit hunter from Pond Inlet, Nunavut, investigates the impacts of one of Nunavut’s largest mines on traditional lands near his community.

On the Magdalen Islands, during the short lobster season, fishermen and plant workers ensure the economic prosperity of an entire people. In the reality of a global market driven by the United States, the fragility of the fishing industry is palpable, as is the future of seafaring and island culture.
