The impact of global warming on a once-thriving culture now struggling to survive on our world's northernmost frontier is examined. The Inuit find their traditional way of life quickly slipping away along with the melting of the Arctic ice.

The documentary explores the Greenlandic concept of SILA, a highly meaningful term that encompasses weather, balance and consciousness. Amidst a breathtaking frozen landscape, two vastly independent communities, Inuit subsistence hunters and visiting polar scientists, bear witness to the transforming Arctic due to climate change. Both sides of witnesses bring a human face to the highly politicized issue of climate change and illustrate the impact our over-industrialized world can have even on a small isolated Arctic community.—Anonymous
