Winner of the Audience Award at the ImagineNATIVE 2017 festival, this BC feature debut from Zoe Hopkins is a outdoors adventure family film with themes of environmentalism, Reconciliation, activism and family relationships. 14-year-old Ella makes it her mission to speak out against pipelines at a forum in Klemtu, on the far edge of the Great Bear Rainforest. And she means to get there the traditional way: by kayak. Spectacular scenery is more than a backdrop here, it's also the crux of the argument.
