Synopsis
Education

This documentary focuses on the Yukon's Far North, where 280 Aboriginals live in the village of Old Crow. Deep in this wilderness, the health of the children is a source of concern – the rise in obesity, diabetes and delinquency rates underscores the extent to which health and social problems are linked. With compassion and insight, this film shows how a handful of parents took control of a situation to ensure a future for their children.
