Arctic Son at Full Frame, IFP at Lincoln Center, IFF Boston and Hot Docs

Arts Engine and Big Mouth Films present Arctic Son. In the tiny village of Old Crow, 80 miles north of the Arctic Circle, a father and his son are reunited after almost 20 years apart. They share a name and a bloodline, but the worlds they know and the lifestyles they lead are as different as their respective hometown climates. Stanley Sr. is a hunter, a rugged man of the land steeped in native traditions. City-raised Stanley Jr. immerses himself in hip hop music, video games, and drunken debauched nights. Embedded within this moving father-son story is a larger exploration of the complex relationship between tradition and modernity; old and young; nature and pop culture; addiction and independence; and the bigger quest we all embark on at one point or another -- the need to know who we are and where we belong.
