The Inuit call ice Saattuq and its melting. In the High Arctic, climate change is not a debate. It’s a visceral fact of life transforming the lives of its people, its landscape and wildlife. Thin Ice provides a comprehensive overview of the impact of climate change on our Polar region. The film also presents the broader discussion over sovereignty and control of the arctic waters while melting ice presents new challenges and new perspectives on our vision of the north.
