Startet TIFF med europeisk premiere av dokumentaren ‘One With The Whale’ (2023). Vi møter en yu’pik-familie på øya St Lawrence i Beringhavet, som er helt avhengige av jakt for å overleve, mens sønnen mottar tusenvis av hatmeldinger på nettet etter at han skjøt sin første hval.

Even better, the show would be in Toronto, my hometown, where Ted and I went to high-school together, at #TIFF.
