• Summary:This documentary follows the final year of high school for eight teens at Innalik school in a remote town of northern Quebec, presenting a vibrant and utterly contemporary view of life in Canada's North. Throughout the film, the students reveal an unusual and fascinating mix of southern and northern cultures. The film paints a rich portrait of coming of age in an Inuit town and helps to dispel the myths of northern isolation and desolation. Instead we discover a place where hope and strength overcome struggle.
