a very very beautiful short of Ilulissat, Greenland where filmmakers Glen Milner and Ben Hilton witness Greenland’s first dawn of the year.

this video is extremely well edited. it’s able to transmit message of the environment, hope, future, society n survival in less then a minute.

some interesting stats from the shoot:

Affect of changing climate
Ice depleting by up to 15 meters (49 feet) per year in Ilulissat, meaning 20 billion tons of iceberg break off and pass out of the Ilulissat fjord annually.

Hours of darkness per day while filming 
21.

Days of total darkness per year 
43.

Average sunlight per year 
On balance, 1,878 sunshine hours––approximately 5.1 sunlight hours per day.
