Synopsis

For 6 days, Inuit teenagers will go kayaking to discover their territory in Nunavik (Quebec, Canada) but also their identity, what drives them and defines them as human beings. It is through the practice of kayaking, other ancestral traditional activities as well as a total immersion in nature for several days that they will learn to overcome their difficulties and to discover their strengths. But, above all, to create meaningful links with their peers and their environment.

With Annie-Claude Roberge and Judith Naluyik in attendance
