Kayak to Klemtu

14-year-old Ella is determined to travel the length of the Inside Passage by kayak in order to protect her home. She plans to protest a proposed pipeline that would have oil tanker traffic spoil her beloved homeland’s waters. Ella is prepared to handle all of the challenges put in front of by her this adventure, but most of all the challenge of her whacky family. Her neurotic aunt, her cranky uncle, her wayward cousin, and the memory of her late uncle all tag along for the ride, throwing Ella for a loop. From Tla'Amin to Klemtu, British Colombia, this family navigates their blend of cultures and ideals, while their spirits honour the coast as a place for not just Ella, but everyone to call home.
