A remote Inuit community in Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland) faces dramatic transformation of their sea ice by climate change.

Iceberg-projected interviews are punctuated with Kalaallisut words describing their disappearing winter environment. Inscribed in the ice by the island's youth, they reflect climate change that originates a world away.

With summer sea ice predicted to be lost from the High Arctic before 2050*, Inuit communities' winter traditions are already changing dramatically.

Are we witnessing the beginning of sikoqqinngisaannassooq: a future without sea ice?


This is the teaser for a film made by Adam Sébire in collaboration with Uummannaq Children's Home

Official Selection: Tromsø International Film Festival, January 2025
