Abstract:
Okpik: Little Village in the Arctic is a stunning and eye-opening documentary about one family's pursuit to becoming fully self-sufficient, living off the land in a remote location on the north end of the Mackenzie River. Using local materials and traditional knowledge Inuit/Gwich'in Hunter, Kylik Kisoun Taylor will re-establish and re-imagine the lost practice of building an Inuvialuit log house with a sod roof with the intention of creating housing security in his traditional territory of the Beaufort Delta. Kylik builds his future at his off-grid camp and creates an opportunity for language and cultural revitalization.
