Why watch the movie Edge of the Knife?
""The Edge of the Knife" is the first feature film spoken in Haida, a language that is endangered in northern Canada, with only twenty speakers left in the world. With an ancient myth as a pretext, this movie not only portrays the tragedy of losing a language and all the cultural history it holds (like Mexican "Sueño en otro idioma"). This film has greater social relevance, as a testimony of an almost extinct language that persists thanks to cinema. With an original plot and stunning photography, don't miss this impressive movie selected at the Toronto Film Festival."
