“Can you swim?” Three simple words that speak volumes about the lack of compassion, of understanding, of decency. What a monstrous reply to people crying out for help.
I am hooked on this youtube channel. These films are leaving me inspired, touched, and concerned. Please continue the work and support of these educational and important films. Thank you for all the heart and efforts to tell so many stories of fellow humans and creatures, and of our world. (Ashland City, TN, USA)
Most of the times we aren't aware of the lives of people on the other side of the world. It's a damn good real descrption of how hard their lives are and how climate change is affecting our world, lives of the people especially tribals. All over the world the tribal lives are endangered. Thanks Patagonia to bring it up. Those people need to be heard, and protected. It said "WE CAN'T RUN AWAY FROM OUR ROOTS, we take them whereever we go." True.
These are the types of videos I want to see millions of views on. It’s so sad that people just look away and ignore the issues or pretend they don’t even exist. We are slowly killing our planet, our home. The only one we have. Collectively. I wish more people cared. 😢
I really hope that we will wake up as humans and start making changes. For the sake of our children, I hope this happens soon before it’s too late. So sad.
I'm sorry to say, it is already too late. Most of the world's climate scientists now use the term IRREVERSIBLE CLIMATE COLLAPSE. ("Climate change" is a fossil fuel industry concocted warm & fuzzy term that was created to replace the more accurate and scary term "global warming".)
Great job. I work in the region and funding and supplies are usually what make the projects move slowly. I feel like this should be updated and added onto now after Typhoon Merdok just took another 100ft of their shoreline and flooded their village and homes. Hopefully the disaster relief funds will kickstart the move for Newtok rather than a rebuild.
I found this a really emotional watch. A truly exceptional piece of filmmaking - thanks for sharing with us, Patagonia. For anyone reading this who's wondering how we got here and what we can do, I can highly recommend the book "The Nutmeg's Curse" by Amitav Ghosh as a very useful accompaniment to this piece.
Such a humbling film. It had me in tears when mum told her daughter she had to leave for a year, and her daughter (devastated that her mum has to go) still asks mum if she was OK. Thanks for another important movie.
Does Tom John have a way of raising money privately? He and his people are so freaking strong! I’m so proud of you guys for fighting the good fight keeping your heads above water and sticking together as a family, as a people! Shoot anyone with a heart can get behind that. Semper Fi brother, how can I help? Thanks Patagonia for doing it to me again. Love that there is a company out here spending their resources for something good other than profits.
Simply a brilliant piece of filmmaking. I hope it gets the attention and recognition it deserves. Hearing of a billion people to be displaced is certainly tragic, but sadly only registers as a statistic. The story of this single community will resonate so much deeper, and will do more to catalyze change, than any figure or dataset.
excellent film, thank you for shining a light on native communities and their struggle against the rising of the tide, literally and figuratively speaking. my heart goes out to these families. love conquers all❤️. 🦅
September Arctic sea ice is now declining at a rate of 13% per decade every drop of oil, every ton of coal and every cubic foot of gas we burn pushes us deeper into climate chaos
With these disasters government money, is stolen "big time", FEMA like. It starts, with acting up like this on the financial logistics of the relocation. They see an opportunity and work ambitiously on it

Thank you for taking the time to make these films Patagonia team!!
"It's not just about the presevation of our culture. It's preserving our way of life."
Minute 1:06:00 is so heartbreaking....and lots of ohters...it is hard to watch, while I am living in paradise....thanks Patagonia for sharing
Patagonia, please never stop making such thought provoking films.

It’s finally up lol this my home town it’s me Leonard Tom 🕺🏻💯
Fantastic film, truly amazing. Congratulations Patagonia and all the team.
Truly a beautiful and emotional film. These people are survivors by genes, culture and family bond.

Thank you for sharing this important story and giving the Newtok people an opportunity to talk about their own life.

this is the third of these patagonia films I've seen and I'm starting to notice a pattern. they're outstanding.
excellent film, thank you for shining a light on native communities and their struggle against the rising of the tide, literally and figuratively speaking. my heart goes out to these families. love conquers all❤️. 🦅
Thanks for your role in this Patagonia.
Thank you for sharing their Story!!!! Sadly more like that is going to happen :( We got to stand together
Amazing (and unsettling) film, thank you!
That was really something to watch. Powerful film.
Wow. Thanks for making this film🙏🏻
Thank you this is truly beautiful
Amazing film. Thank you for telling this story.
Thank you Patagonia
Watching this while we keep giving millions to Ukraine makes me question how these people cannot get help from their own government.
Sad to see the destruction of a village, also sad to see the pollution and waste left behind to be swallowed by the earth
Timely & poignant bitter dose 🙏🏽
one of the most powerful docs I've ever seen.. this should be shown at school
Thank you Patagonia for making this film and Thank you to the people of Newtok for opening your doors and sharing your stories, Sgi! 🌞🪶
This was really informative and emotional. Thank you.
im sorry, something about praying to the colonizers god gets me, the oppression runs deep. Justice for Newtok.
How can I make a film with you guys?
Question. Does Patagonia have any Focus on the Chilean and Argentinian Patagonia?
With a full record of the last two decades, scientists concluded that the West’s ongoing drought is the worst since at least 800 A.D.
Waw, the truth films
The two boys who were sharing a towel or my brother's and they're still alive today
Dam really hoping this gets more views
This is the price paid by the usery based economy in which we live. Consume, obey. Growth for the sake of growth. The ideology of a cancer cell.
Cried like a baby.
Amazing film. The lack of a narrator makes it feel like you’re there with the people. They are paying for the abuse to the planet by capitalists
49:25 politicians at their finest
September Arctic sea ice is now declining at a rate of 13% per decade
every drop of oil, every ton of coal and every cubic foot of gas we burn pushes us deeper into climate chaos
FEMA .......how did government get to this shameful state!
This is what all these self proclaimed billionaires should donate money to…..
With these disasters government money, is stolen "big time", FEMA like.
It starts, with acting up like this on the financial logistics of the relocation.
They see an opportunity and work ambitiously on it
Carbon dioxide levels in the air are at their highest in 650,00 years
