To live in a pristine land unchanged by man...to roam a wilderness through which few other humans have passed...to choose an idyllic site, cut trees and build a log cabin...to be a self-sufficient craftsman, making what is needed from materials available...to be not at odds with the world, but content with one’s own thoughts and company... Thousands have had such a dream, but Richard Proenneke lived them. He found a place in Alaska, built a cabin, and stayed to become part of the country. This is a simple account of the day-to-day explorations and activities he carried out alone, and the constant chain of nature’s events that kept him company. The "real" Frontier House.

Dick Proenneke’s simple, yet profound account of his 30-year adventure in the remote Alaska wilderness continues in this sequel to ALONE IN THE WILDERNESS. Watch through his eyes as he continues to document through his 16mm wind-up Bolex camera, capturing his own amazing craftsmanship, the stunning Alaskan wildlife and scenery and even a visit from his brother, Jake (who helped shoot some of the film used in this documentary). His epic journey takes you on a vacation far away from the hustle and bustle of today’s fast paced society to a land of tranquility. It is truly a breath of fresh air.

Saving the King of Salmon from extinction?

“Hunting in Wartime” profiles Tlingit veterans from Hoonah, Alaska who saw combat during the Vietnam War. The veterans talk about surviving trauma, relating to Vietnamese communities, readjusting to civilian life, and serving a government that systematically oppresses native people. Their stories give an important human face to the combat soldier and show the lasting effects of war on individuals, families and communities.
