...Songs from the Tundra” features lush high-definition images of tundra lifestyle overlaid with the folk songs of a 90-year-old blind native. Berman’s carefully crafted documentary won him recognition in the United States and abroad, netting him the Grand Jury Prize at the Provincetown Film Festival and a selection from the International Documentary Film Festival in Amsterdam—the biggest documentary film festival in the world—where he was the youngest of the 15 student filmmakers selected...
