Hunting whales is a matter of life or death for the residents of St. Lawrence, a remote island in the Bering Sea. So when Chris Apassingok becomes the youngest person to ever harpoon a whale for his Alaskan village, his mother proudly shares the news on Facebook. To her surprise, thousands of keyboard activists brutally attack Chris without fully understanding the scope of his accomplishment. One With The Whale is a heartwarming yet thrilling story of one family's struggle to rebuild their shattered identities and regain a new foothold in both the ancient and modern world.
