Prévisualisation du Film
SYNOPSIS
Mettant en scène de magnifiques images capturées en sept hivers passés dans l'arctique canadien, Au gré de la plume Arctique vous transporte à travers le temps dans le monde des Inuits des Îles Belcher, dans la Baie d'Hudson. Une relation unique avec les canards eiders traverse leur passé, présent et futur. Le duvet d'eider, la plus chaude plume au monde, permet aux Inuits et aux canards de survivre le dur hiver arctique. Des mises en scènes recréant la vie traditionnelle sont juxtaposées avec des scènes de la vie moderne à Sanikiluaq, alors que les Inuits et les eiders font face aux défis posés par une banquise et des courants marins en changement, perturbés par les gigantesques barrages hydroélectriques qui alimentent en électricité New York et d'autres villes majeures de l'est de l'Amérique du Nord. En montrant comment une technologie aussi simple qu'une plume permet la survie, une communauté de subsistance mets au défis le monde de trouver de nouvelles solutions énergétiques qui fonctionneraient avec les saisons de notre cycle hydrologique.

"On en ressort avec un seul conseil: courez le voir au grand écran" 4/5 Etoiles La Presse
"Spectacular... Gorgeous... Genius. Great filmmaking – and not just for the enviro-conscious" 4/5 Stars NOW Toronto
"Pour un film qui commence parle des canards, des gens d'une plume finit parnégocier rien moins que la place de l'homme, et notre rôle, dans le cycle de vie. C'est un exploit indéniablement élégant, et qui pourrait très bien recadrer la façon dont vous vivre le reste de votre vie." 4/5 Stars Katherine Monk, Postmedia News
"La poésie du film à son meilleur .. Astounding .. Le fait de contraindre ..divertissant" 4.5/5 StarsThe Vancouver Observer
"Poetic and artistic... a near mystical mix of time-lapse Arctic landscapes, marine-life photography, and interwoven imagery of present-day and historical Inuit life." The Georgia Straight
"Painterly images... highly cinematic instances in which traditional ways collide headlong with the modern world" WE Vancouver
"A breathtaking look at Inuit life today and 100 years ago" Vancouver is Awesome
"Beautifully put together with an artistic sensibility often overlooked in the environmental documentary department" RedWire
"A crucial film. The images are allowed to speak for themselves, which they rather successfully accomplish. 4.5 of 5" PRESS+1
"Beautifully shot.. incredible images underwater.. amazing time-lapse.. gives new meaning to the word remote" Vancouver Sun
"Takes the audience on an arctic adventure for an eye opening look into the intricate symbiosis that exists between environmental change and cultural evolution" The Source
"Artful and Meditative" The Georgia Straight
