Journey into Orthodox Alaska

This video explores one of North America’s most fascinating cultural phenomenons: Eastern Christianity amongst Native Alaskans. It is intended to gather support for the production of a feature-length documentary (currently titled “Arctic Cross“) about the Yup’ik people of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. The material was filmed during a fact-finding trip to Alaska in August 2011.
