Moosehide Slide (« Ëdhä dädhëchä » in the Hän language) is a well-known feature of the Dawson City area in Yukon. Tourist websites explain how the crater, which takes up a large part of the mountain, was caused by a prehistoric landslide. But, concealed by the gaping hole, another, lesser-known story exists: that of the huge scar on First Nations territory, which filmmaker Dan Sokolowski brings to light. Using techniques of painting on film and superimposed images, he juxtaposes two parallel accounts of how the feature was formed. This experimental short film highlights the impossibility of reconciliation without first recognizing the ancestral stories of Indigenous peoples.

In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

Ezmae Chang

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
