Ëdhä Dädhëcha¸ | Moosehide Slide, dir. Dan Sokolowski, 2020, 4 MIN

The Dawson City landslide is a dominant feature of Dawson City, Yukon’s city-scape. It is a pre-historic rock-slope failure at the northern edge of town. It is known by the local Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in as Ëdhä Dädhëcha¸ or Moosehide Slide. This film examines the scientific reasons for the occurrence of the slide versus the legend that the local Indigenous people say was the actual creation event.

Screening as part of YFS' 70 Years of Yukon Cinema celebration!
