• Summary:"May is the month for gathering seaweed. Tsimshian elders travel to their seaweed and halibut camp on Princess Royal Island in the middle of the endangered Great Bear Rainforest. 'Gitga'ata Spring Harvest' follows the daily rhythms of this enchanted seasonal camp, featuring the wisdom and lessons of Tsimshian elders Chief Johnny Clifton, his wife Helen, and others from the community of Hartley Bay. They share teachings about cedar, the white bear, seaweed, halibut, salmon, abalone, respect and sharing. By highlighting the cultural and spiritual values of the temperate rainforest, the film provides a portrait of the ecological knowledge that has underpinned the Gitga'at people's way of life for millenia."--Container.
