Jerry Arey - Honesty On The Water: Inupiat Elder

Jerry Arey, born in Alaska, reflects on growing up living on the land and his years in Residential School.
In the spring of 2024, Reel Youth & the Western Arctic Youth Collective visited Aklavik, NT to support students at Moose Kerr School to learn documentary filmmaking skills and produce films about their Elders. The resulting films capture the lived experience and wisdom of three Elders who speak about their childhoods, connections to family and community, living out on the land, residential schools, and their visions for positive change.
