This exhibition and short film, debuting at the Florida Museum of Natural History, tells the story of today’s environmental emergency through the figure of the orca. Native communities coast to coast enjoin us all to protect, restore, and pass on to future generations a respect for each other, the sacred waters, and all our relations.

Developed with the Lummi Nation’s Tribal Sovereignty and Treaty Protection Office, our award-winning exhibition and IMAX-style film installation tells the story of today’s environmental emergency through the figure of the orca.
