Filmmaker: Joel Heath.
This film explores the unique cultural relationship between the Inuit on the Belcher Islands in Hudson Bay and the eider duck.  Both the community and eiders face big challenges to adapt to changing sea ice dynamics, while the seasons of hydrology and ocean currents are being reversed by runoff from hydroelectric dams powering eastern North America.
