Anote's Ark

The Pacific Island nation of Kiribati (population: 100,000) is one of the most remote places on the planet, seemingly far-removed from the pressures of modern life. Yet it is one of the first countries that must confront the main existential dilemma of our time: imminent annihilation from sea-level rise. While Kiribati�s President Anote Tong races to find a way to protect his nation�s people and maintain their dignity, many Kiribati are already seeking safe harbour overseas. 

Set against the backdrop of international climate and human rights negotiations, Anote�s struggle to save his nation is intertwined with the extraordinary fate of Tiemeri, a young mother of six, who fights to migrate her family to New Zealand. At stake is the survival of Tiemeri�s family, the Kiribati people, and 4,000 years of Kiribati culture.
