Great Northern

Shot during the winter period of 24 hour darkness, in Inuvik, ‘a typical Canadian town’ inside the Arctic Circle. Restricted by the extreme cold to interior shooting, the film attempts to record an experience of the landscape only through conversations with residents. It is a film formed of edges, skirting at the limits of our linguistic ability to communicate that which is most familiar to us, where gesture starts to stand in for words, and made at the frontier of global industrial development, where oil and gas pipelines reach further into the Arctic Sea as the ice begins to melt.
