Alaska: Arctic Village - 1999
Fluid Geographic Films: www.youtube.com/mattiamariani
Arctic Village, at the outskirts of Brooks Range, a community of Atapaskan Native Americans, of the Gwich’in nation, live in cyclical harmony with nature. The hunt for caribou is their only means of livelihood. Furthermore, their entire culture has revolved around this animal for over 3000 years, and is now in danger due to the exploitation of local crude oil that the US government carries out and wants to expand. The presence of the oilrigs diverts the thousands year-old course of the caribou herd, placing the culture of the Gwic’in villages and the entire Arctic ecosystem in jeopardy.
Alaska: Arctic village, alle appendici delle Broks Range, un villaggio di indiani Atapaskan del popolo dei Gwich’in vive in armonia ciclica con la natura. La caccia al caribou è l’unico sostentamento, tutta la loro cultura gira intorno a questo animale ormai da più di 3000 anni, oggi in pericolo per via dello sfruttamento petrolifero che il governo USA effettua e vuole espandere.
