The documentary explores the Greenlandic concept of SILA, a highly meaningful term that encompasses weather, balance and consciousness. Amidst a breathtaking frozen landscape, two vastly independent communities, Inuit subsistence hunters and visiting polar scientists, bear witness to the transforming Arctic due to climate change. In the world's most northern inhabited town, an Inuit settlement struggles to preserve its culture; and with the drastic change in weather pattern, their centuries-old lifestyle is vanishing. Their stories are vividly woven together with those of a small group of international researchers on Greenland's vast Inland Ice Cap. Both sides of witnesses bring a human face to the highly politicized issue of climate change and illustrate the impact our over-industrialized world can have even on a small isolated Arctic community.
