Road to Nowhere

Caroline D´Hondt
Belgium / 2024 / 1:22:00

In Inuit land, away from the world, Iqaluit is nevertheless a cosmopolitan city, because many people come from the four corners of the world to work in this capital of the Canadian territory of Nunavut. A city where some 8,000 inhabitants live, a diverse microcosm in Arctic soil. Road to Nowhere invites you to travel the icy road that begins and ends in this place where many worlds coexist. A film which undertakes to cross doors literally and figuratively, to observe everyday events, the repetition of gestures and the habits of each person. Here, it is a question of capturing how life unfolds in the intimate and the ordinary, a sideways look that questions the presence of each person, the relationship to their roots and their future. A film that reveals itself as a canvas skilfully woven into a collective fresco on the edge of the world where the trivial, poetry and paradox intertwine.
