Hunting whales is a matter of life and death for the inhabitants of St. Lawrence, a small island in the Bering Sea. So when Chris Agra Apassingok becomes the youngest person to harpoon a whale in his Alaskan village, his mother proudly shares the news on Facebook. To her surprise, thousands of keyboard activists brutally attack Chris without fully understanding the scope of his achievement.
ONE WITH THE WHALE is an incredible and yet moving story of a family’s struggle to rebuild their shattered identities and find a way to live according to Ancestral Indigenous values in a cruel modern world that is advancing at a rapid pace.
