Smokin' fish

Streaming video - 2014

Cory Mann is a quirky Tlingit businessman hustling to make a dollar in Juneau Alaska. He gets hungry for smoked salmon, nostalgic for his childhood, and decides to spend a summer smoking fish at his family's traditional fish camp. The unusual story of his life and the untold history of his people interweave with the process of preparing traditional food as he struggles to pay his bills, keep the IRS off his back, and keep his business afloat. By turns tragic, bizarre, or just plain ridiculous, Smokin' fish tells the story of one man's attempts to navigate the messy zone of collision between the modern world and an ancient culture. Filmmaker: Luke Griswold-Tergis, Cory Mann.
