Dawson City: Frozen Time screening

You think you know the history of the gold rush, but banish those Yosemite Sam inklings forever with this 2016 documentary that chronicles 500 films from 1910, rediscovered in a sub-artic swimming pool deep in the Yukon after 50 years. The found footage shows the transformation and displacement of a Indigenous hunting camp, as well as acting as a slow-shutter snapshot of life in the north in the early 20th century.
