This film centers on the Indigenous practice of ‘life as a ceremony’. We journey alongside the Salmon in the Fraser River during their annual migration, meeting individuals from Indigenous communities along the way. Each shares their personal bonds with the Spirit Who Swims and what they feel are the consequences if the Spirit were to disappear.
