(0.00 / 0 votes)I want to tell you about a man
I once knew.
He lived in a land so beautiful
and white and silent,
that if you scraped
a harpoon on the ice,
you could hear it for miles and miles.
We give thanks...
for what the Earth provides.
My people, the Inuit
have lived here for thousands of years.
But the land my forefathers knew
is disappearing.
We can see the changes happening
before our very eyes.
We have something to discuss...
When you were a boy
you were taken from us.
Even though you were schooled
by the southerners...
will help you...
for what lies ahead.
They told him of a dream
passed down by the Elders.
It would change his life and mine.
...and then the Sun grew angry.
It came down from the heavens
and it kissed the earth...
and with that fatal kiss,
all things were ended.
Now the ice is retreating.
It is much to ask...
but there is no one else
You must go South.
This is all that we could raise.
These are tickets for air travel also.
Do this thing, for our sake
if not theirs.
Tell their Elders of the dream
so they understand that they must stop.
If they do not
we are finished.
under a big open sky,
hunting and fishing in the wilderness.
But he found himself
in an unknown world.
So he left his homeland
at the top of the Earth
and he came to the South...
where the rest of us live.
Where is the silence?
All these people.
All this noise.
It's getting closer and closer,
and I am getting smaller and smaller.
I must see the sky above me...
in order to feel the ground beneath me.
But here, with all this...
it is difficult to feel anything.
My parents call me Catherine,
but on the streets, I go by Chloe.
And for me, that morning
was just like any other.
Except...
for one thing.
A freakin' Eskimo?
Thank you.
Yo... my man.
- Hello!
- You lost?
Lost, can't find your way home?
Do you speak English?
Speak English? Good.
Right, what we're going to do is...
We're going to take you to wherever
you got to go, you feel me?
I need to speak to your Elders.
You want to speak to my momma?
I have an important message.
But listen here, so you could talk
to my moms, right... that's cool...
but you got to pay me, alright?
Dinero... money.
You understand that? Yes? Good.
But you don't understand.
No, homey, you see... see baby,
you don't understand.
I understand, I understand
you're getting robbed, man.
- Now give me your freakin' money.
- Yo, Mike! What'd I tell you, man?
You all right?
What are you doing?
Can't you see he's a friggin' bum?
No, 'cause he... he was just
looking like a flippin' tourist.
- He was like this, looking up at the sky.
- What's so good about looking down anyway?
Would a tourist be dressed
like a friggin' Eskimo?
No, he would not. Now why don't you go on
and find a yo-yo with some real dough.
- Go on!
- Dude...
Get out! Go on!
You all right?
- You okay?
- Yes.
Thanks to her. Yes, I think so.
And that's when she agreed
to be my guide.
For a small payment, she said
she would lead me to the Elders.
I got to start Miming.
In here are all the old people
you'll ever want to meet.
- These are your Elders?
- Not mine.
But they'll do
for your age fetish, I think.
Here's what we'll do,
I'll create a distraction.
I don't understand.
And you run in and talk
to all the elders you want.
They look like prisoners.
Now, pay attention,
once I've taken out the first one,
I'll signal to you to "Go, go, go!"
