PILGRIM
In September 2024, 3 young adults from West Dunbartonshire travelled from Dumbarton to Svalbard in the Arctic.
For 5 days they travelled on trains and on the 6th day they took a short flight from mainland Norway to the northernmost township in the world.
They traveled there because it is the place in the world where temperatures are rising the fastest due to global climate change.
Pilgrim is the story of their journey; of what it was, of what it has come to mean, and of what happens when things begin to disappear.
