Qapirangajuq: Inuit Knowledge and Climate Change is the world's first Inuktitut-language film on the topic of climate change. The film is an intimate portrait of Inuit life told in the voices of Inuit elders and hunters, who detail the social and ecological effects of global warming in the Arctic. Using stunning visual shots on the land, Qapirangajuq documents Inuit knowledge that has been ignored by southern scientists. That includes evidence that seal behaviour and fur thickness is changing, polar bear and raven populations are increasing, warmer winds are changing snow, overland navigation weather prediction difficult are more difficult, the sea is warmer, ice floes are thinner and ice is breaking up much earlier. <54mn>
