Film: Launguage of America

SPACE Gallery
Portland, ME

a culture that has existed in Maine for over 9,000 years, but is now quickly approaching the brink of disappearance. The story follows members of three New England tribes, the Passamaquoddy, Wampanoag, and Narrangansett, who against all odds are struggling to maintain their language and traditional ways of living in 21st century America.

An official selection of the Maine, Connecticut, and Boston International Film Festivals, Language of America has been praised by viewers as an urgent call to one of the most critical issues of our generation, global language loss. At a time when half of the world's 6,000 languages may disappear in the next 50 years, the film addresses a global pandemic in the towns eastern Maine. As language diversity decreases in an increasingly globalized and interconnected world, Language of America shows the importance of keeping a language alive, and what is at stake when any one of them is lost.
