Mittimatalik
Mittimatalik (Pond Inlet) is an Inuit community located north of Baffin Island, Nunavut, well above the Arctic Circle. It has a population of slightly more than 1,500, the vast majority of whom are Inuit. Nestled between the sea and glacial mountains, its landscape reflects the vastness and beauty of Canada's North. In summer, the midnight sun energizes local life, while in winter, the long Arctic night sets the pace.
Context
Motivated by the aim of documenting the impacts of climate change on northern communities and to raise public awareness, this project, initiated in 2022, emerged from the collaboration between scientists, filmmakers, and residents of Mittimatalik.
This documentary gives voice to people living on the front lines of climate disruption. Their stories reveal a powerful and human portrait of an Arctic in transformation, where traditions and adaptations intertwine amid in an uncertain future.
