Last week, we went to see a documentary that my cousin Van filmed. It was called "Koneline: Our Land Beautiful". The film was about the land and how different people live on the land. Koneline was filmed in northwest British Columbia and was directed by Nettie Wild. Nettie is a documentary filmmaker. Her film showed how the Tahltan First Nations live in a changing part of B.C. Some Tahltan people like the change of the mining companies that called the Tahltan territory the "Golden Triangle" because of the abundance of copper and gold while other Tahltan people disliked the mining operations and made human roadblocks.
Also in northwest B.C. there are hunting families that call the area "Canada's Serengeti". There is a woman who takes hunters on trips via horse back. The horses have to cross a big and fast river. Their heads bobbed up and down. .
My favorite scene was the dog sledding scene. It was beautiful cinematography
It was an amazing film! Congratulations to Nettie and Van!
The end.
