Documentary Description

"Whether or not we reach Alaska we all want to know that such a place exists" - and it seems almost impossible that such a place does exist. Humpback whales Wolves Salmon Buffalo Musk Ox Bears Sea lions Caribou Bald Eagles Polar Bears Moose and Man - just a few of the stars of ALASKA. The variety of life in Alaska is overwhelming - enough to provide material for a score of Big Movies (in fact it has.) In ALASKA director George Casey shows real grace whether depicting Humpback whales on a herring hunt or Natives on a whale hunt. The film conveys a consistent spirit of awe and curiosity. Thankfully ALASKA is not a laundry list of spectacular animals - but a tribute to one of natures last purely wild landscapes.Survival is the deceptively straightforward theme - strategies for braving Alaskas extremes and reaping its riches link and distinguish all forms of life here. ALASKA sets the standard for Large Format nature documentaries - too many of which are episodic derivative and thematically cobbled together. ALASKAs science is broad but its best lessons are not meant to be of the classroom variety - sheer exposure to raw and beautiful nature is the point.
