The strange story of the Aleut people and their home between Alaska and Siberia, whose way of life is under threat.
Aleutians Cradle of the Storms (2 x 58 minutes)

The Aleutian Islands span the seas between Alaska and Siberia, a desolate necklace of wind-stripped terrain, ravaged by weather that has earned it the name “the Cradle of the Storms.”
The Aleutians: Cradle of the Storms is a two part series that tells the absorbing story of an island chain and its people who have endured and survived wave after wave of invaders. In Part One we reveal the storm lashed islands and the 9000 year culture that is forever changed by fur-seeking outsiders. In Part Two we pick up the story of the Native Aleuts as the violence of a world at war arrives on their islands.
Also available as 1 x one hour (Standard Definition Only)
