In 'Caribou Nation,' Tłı̨chǫ researchers brave the In 'Caribou Nation,' Tłı̨chǫ researchers brave the barren tundra to study caribou, using traditional knowledge in seeking solutions to their decline. In Quebec, Innu mentor youth about their sacred bond with boreal caribou, a species in crisis due to deforestation and human impacts.⁠
⁠
In 'Intertidal,' pioneering Asian and Native Hawaiian marine scientists grapple with questions of belonging as they confront the long history of exploitation in coral reef research. Their work questions who holds authority in science—and what is lost when indigenous perspectives are dismissed.⁠
⁠
These films will screen together on Saturday, April 18th, at 6:45 pm followed by a Q&A with 'Intertidal' director Paul Kim.⁠

The deep-sea research team which captured the firs The deep-sea research team which captured the first-ever footage of a giant squid in its natural habitat now take on the challenge of unraveling the mysteries of the ancient coelacanth. In the ocean depths of Indonesia, they undertake the world’s first 72-hour tracking mission to closely observe this living fossil. How has this ancient fish managed to avoid extinction? This thrilling documentary with narration by Sir David Attenborough brings viewers closer than ever into the hidden world of the coelacanth.⁠
⁠
The Lake Sturgeon has existed virtually unchanged for more than 130 million years. It survived a meteor impact and outlived the dinosaurs, but it struggles to survive in the face of human development. With only 1% remaining in the Great Lakes, conservationists in Lake Huron’s Saginaw Bay are working to bring this iconic species back from the brink of extinction.⁠
⁠
"Deep Ocean: Kingdom of the Coleacanth," preceded by "Dinosaur Fish," will be screening on Saturday, April 18th at 4:30pm and Monday, April 20th at 7:30pm⁠, followed by a Q&A with director Norio Matsumara.
⁠
Presented by Tapestry by Hilton!⁠
