Research Themes
Kirk French and his team are documenting the changes in the environment and the culture of the Arctic through a filmmaking project that revisits the first documentary film "Nanook of the North." In this project, French and his collaborators are creating "Climate Change on the Hudson: A Century After Nanook." The team has returned to Inukjuak, home of the original documentary, to examine what has happened to the community over the past century, the effects of climate change and how they are committed to maintaining their culture.
