Karine Claassen traveled to Greenland and returned with two episodes packed with unique and surprising insights into the lives of Greenlanders. In the human interest series "Greenland is Ours," she gives them a voice and a face.
Greenland longs for independence, but first it must learn to stand on its own two feet. The threats from America are therefore a wake-up call. Greenland possesses enormous, largely untapped mineral wealth. The future may look bright, but at what price? Are the Greenlanders willing to abandon age-old traditions and customs that make them unique, but may also hinder their future? In Qaqortoq, Karine sets out with chef Salik. He invites her to a Greenlandic meal at his home, along with his American partner, Julia. He also takes Karine to Narsaq, a small town at the foot of a highly sought-after mineral-rich mountain. His niece, Avaaraq, is fighting against the opening of a mine there.
