Ah here.
Poland-packed, pacific pollock pretending to be paddies?

Called into local Tesco on Monday evening and lifted a box of fish branded “Donegal Catch”. What a misrepresentation – Alaska pollock caught in the Pacific and packaged in Poland! Hasn’t ever came close to anywhere in Ireland. Needless to say I put it down and bought chicken instead.
Thanks Bebe

A segment from Afterglow, which, according to producers Sweetgrass, has been hailed as:
…one of the most cinematically profound ski movies ever made. Deep pillows and Alaskan spines, all filmed at night, with massive lights, custom made LED suits, and a national government’s worth of logistics, planning, and civil engineering. Filmed as a partnership between Sweetgrass Productions, Philips TV, and the Swedish Agency Ahlstrand & Wållgren, it’s two parts creativity, one part branded content, and a pinch of masochism for good measure.
Fair enough.
Here’s the full film.

You’re in Alaska, at a town called Unalaska. It’s 11pm: broad daylight. You hear a fox.
The back yard is filled with eagles.
