S01E06: The Inuit - Survivors Of The FutureLes journeys to the top of Baffin Island in rural Nunavut, Canada: the Arctic, to visit a small Inuit community called Pond Inlet. The integration of modern technologies has ensured cultural and physical survival in an environment where temperatures can drop to 40 degrees below Celsius. Today, Pond Inlet faces its greatest challenge: climate change. Les bears witness to the marriage of Western technology and indigenous knowledge, in the face of rapid economic and cultural change -- while the ice slowly recedes from the North.
