There will be a film showing of "Inuit Knowledge and Climate Change" on Thursday, February 20, 7 pm in AVC Lecture Room A. Nunavut-based director Zacharias Kunuk (Atanarjuat, The Fast Runner) and researcher and filmmaker Dr. Ian Mauro (Seeds of Change) have teamed up with Inuit communities to document their knowledge and experience regarding climate change. This new documentary, the world’s first Inuktitut language film on the topic, takes the viewer “on the land” with elders and hunters to explore the social and ecological impacts of a warming Arctic. Mark Sandiford, executive director of Culture PEI, 2008 Gemini Award winner for "Qallunaat, Why White People Are Funny" will be introducing the movie, sharing his experiences and viewpoints of living and working in the Arctic for many years.
