Summary

"Set 80 miles above the Arctic Circle, Kivalina is an intimate portrait of the Inupiaq Eskimo community of Kivalina, Alaska, whose island is sinking due to climate chage. Caught in the middle of the Arctic's grave environmental and cultural tipping point, the documentary beautifully captures the plight of a small indigenous community to survive in a landscape and an American system that is failing them."--Container.
