Movie

Blue: A Tlingit Odyssey

Anthropologist Robert Ascher depicts a myth of the Pacific Northwest Coast Tlingit using the purely symbolic, visual language of direct, cameraless animation. Positing an enchanting, engaging, non-Western alternative to verbal, analytical methods of documentation, he also considered this approach a noninvasive method of portraying an indigenous culture.
