To The Arctic. Magnificent fjords, eerie tundra, calving glaciers and crevasses, and an ocean of ice and icebergs are waiting to be explored in To The Arctic, a giant screen film from the producer’s of Everest, The Living Sea and Coral Reef Adventure. 

This 40-minute documentary will be a stunning visual journey across the Arctic, a far-away place that few of us will ever experience, yet what’s happening there has global implications important to us all.  An Inuit elder (Ilkoo Angutikuak) and a Canadian geographer (Shari Gearheard) will take audiences to Alaska, Nunavut, and Greenland to discover climate changes occurring in the Arctic and to unravel the web of interactions that connect their and our lives to this remote part of our planet. 

In Greenland, glaciers are moving toward the sea at twice the normal pace.  Change is occurring so rapidly in the Arctic that many animals like the polar bear cannot adapt quickly enough.  Migrations, food supplies and ice cover are shifting, even disappearing.

Indigenous people – their culture and way of life – are being affected in dramatic ways.  Global warming, climate change, environmental change – whatever you call it, is more than just a temperature rise.
