The community on the Haida Gwaii archipelago strives to restore balance.

Bruce DeMara

Toronto Star

It's instructive, never strident and ultimately hopeful, a lesson to all about how to live and thrive in concert with our natural environment.

Rated: 3.5/4

Marsha Lederman

Globe and Mail

Much more than a profile of this remarkable place and the cast of characters who populate it, this film captures the heart and heartbreak of the clashes it has seen, primarily over logging.

Rated: 3/4

National Post

It expertly mixes gorgeous footage -- whales, seals, the sky and the sea -- with cogent tales of practical living and activism.

Rated: 3/4

Georgia Straight

With this evocatively shot feature, Wilkinson convincingly insists that the example set by Haida Gwaii is more exportable than the bitumen some overcompensated fools are so hell-bent on driving through Hecate Strait.

NOW Toronto

The result does occasionally feel like a promotional video for the Haida culture. But it's a culture that deserves promoting.

Rated: 4/5
