Sun Come Up – Academy Award Nominee 2011

Documentary about the first known global warming refugees from the South Pacific Ocean. They are the Carteret Islanders and this is their story.

These stories do need to be told, and they are devastating. We all must remember that many, many cultures have disappeared over the thousands of years. What I think is most important is, that even thought the people and their land are separated – maybe forever – documentation of their culture and what they have accomplished is of the utmost value. I wish we had documentation on the civilizations that created many of the seemingly impossible structures that exist on this planet from cultures long gone.
