Description
Summary:"Smokin' Fish" is a documentary about a young and quirky Tlingit businessman-Cory Mann-hustling to make a dollar in Juneau, Alaska. Hungry for smoked salmon and nostalgic for his childhood, Cory decides to spend a summer smoking fish at his family's traditional fish camp. The documentary shadows one man's attempts to navigate the collision between the modern world and an ancient culture. The film integrates story-lines of a modern Native Alaskan fish camp, a compelling personal journey, and dynamic vignettes of Tlingit history and culture - all told from a distinctly Native American perspective.
