49 Words for Snow

The planet is suffering from high fever and its thermometer can be found in Greenland. In this vast land of ice which is now melting at a great speed (248 cubic kilometers of snow each year) all that we hear on the news and read about in the newspapers constitutes the everyday life of its few inhabitants. The Inuit, better known to us as Eskimos, watch helpless as their life changes dramatically and their Arctic civilization receives what is probably the worst blow in its centuries long, frozen history. This documentary presents new climate research results, more pessimistic than ever, while uncovering the new and regrettable "el dorado" of oil companies who are preparing to drill for black gold in the planet’s most vulnerable area.
