Video: A Thousand Hands Ago
A beautiful and simple film from filmmaker Silje Ensby follows one kayak builder using skills from long ago.
A Thousand Hands Ago follows Danish kayak builder Anders Thygesen as he builds an Aleutian kayak at his local lake, reflecting on the technique and process of using these now rare boat-building skills.
