    I never would have imagined how much MY culture suffered. I’m very sad to know that things will not be the same as it was a few or several years back.

      Quyana for sharing, and I’m sorry if this was painful to watch. It’s been over two years ago since I visited Kwethluk but I still regularly look back in awe of the strength & wisdom your people possess. My hope is that this wisdom shines through in the film and inspires us to preserve & protect indigenous culture in Alaska and beyond 🙏

    Beautifully filmed and narrated by the wise elders, a poignant message that traditional cultures respect our plant, and pass these values to there younger people, hopefully the younger folk will value these teachings.Great there is a documentary to keep these teachings as reference into the future.
