Spanning a distance of over 1200 kilometres, the diversity of landscape and culture distinguish British Columbia’s Coast Mountain Range from anywhere else on Earth. Through the eyes of individuals who have chosen to forge a life amongst mountains, forests, and ocean, the depth of the range is discovered. For those who choose to embrace its vastness, there is a tangible, innate attraction to the coast mountains. Often hard to articulate, it is a geography that consumes and shapes the individuals who live amongst it.
Filmed within the Xeni Gwet'in traditional territory and the homelands of the Tŝilhqot'in People. The film was also shot on location within the unceded territory of the Kwakwa̱ka̱'wakw, Lil̓wat7úl, and Sḵwx̱wú7mesh People. We are grateful and acknowledge the mentorship and guidance of Chief Jimmy Lulua of the Xeni Gwet'in First Nations Government.
