Kalaallisut, Greenland Short-doc about 82 year old Indigenous Inuk, a South Greenlandic grass sewing specialist, Marie Josefsen, and her story of probably being the last grass seamstress in Greenland. Growing up, Marie was surrounded by her mother and aunts who sewed lyme grass into baskets, coasters, and etc. Her father and uncles would collect the grass on hunting islands with their kayaks. The arts & craft had been passed down from her foremothers in her family for generations. After years of being active in grass sewing, she’d thought to herself, what if she passes away?

Ashley Qilavaq-Savard, Carmen Kuptana, Eriel Lugt, Jennifer Kilabuk, Johannes Vang, Marc Fussing Rosbach, Princess Daazhraii Johnson, 22min, 2024. Sámi, Norway. Inuit, Canada & Greenland. Gwich'in, Canada & United StatesInuit without snow. Windmills over reindeer. Coastal erosion. Overconsumption. Salmon fishing bans. Witness: Arctic Indigenous Voices tells five powerful stories from the frontlines of climate change, where Arctic Indigenous communities fight for survival and the future they want to see. From Inuit sisters passing on ancestral wisdom to prepare their daughters for a future without the land they once knew, to green energy projects threatening Sámi traditions, the film reveals the painful trade-offs of so-called progress. It captures the resilience of Tuktoyaktuk’s youth as coastal erosion forces them to relocate, echoing the scars of colonisation. A Greenlandic perspective exposes the connection between overconsumption and environmental destruction, while Alaska Native communities unite to protect their vital salmon fisheries. Witness: Arctic Indigenous Voices lays bare the relentless struggle of Indigenous peoples against a world in flux and their unwavering determination to preserve their way of life. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/cambridge/arctic-indigenous-voices-shorts-programme-at-19th-native-spirit-festival/100001879487089479 - **Event Categories**: festivals, art, entertainment, theatre, spiritual - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Cambridge - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Main Theatre, Old Divinity School, St John's College - **lat**: 52.2078473 - **long**: 0.1182858 - **full address**: Main Theatre, Old Divinity School, St John's College, Saint Johns Street, Cambridge, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: ARCTIC INDIGENOUS VOICES : SHORTS PROGRAMME AT 19TH NATIVE SPIRIT FESTIVAL - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/a9fbc52b01e80aabdf86d24219c083e78eeb7805a5bbcf8214aa6292199aa90f-rimg-w450-h800-dc181817-gmir.jpg?v=1762572189 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is ARCTIC INDIGENOUS VOICES : SHORTS PROGRAMME AT 19TH NATIVE SPIRIT FESTIVAL being held? - **A:** ARCTIC INDIGENOUS VOICES : SHORTS PROGRAMME AT 19TH NATIVE SPIRIT FESTIVAL takes place on Thu, 04 Dec, 2025 at 06:00 pm to Thu, 04 Dec, 2025 at 07:30 pm at Main Theatre, Old Divinity School, St John's College, Saint Johns Street, Cambridge, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing ARCTIC INDIGENOUS VOICES : SHORTS PROGRAMME AT 19TH NATIVE SPIRIT FESTIVAL? - **A:** ARCTIC INDIGENOUS VOICES : SHORTS PROGRAMME AT 19TH NATIVE SPIRIT FESTIVAL is organized by Native Spirit Festival & ISDG Cambridge. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
