Bringing northern stories to life
Sagafish Media is a Yukon production company founded in 2015 that specializes in storytelling with a northern point-of-view. Our backyard is the circumpolar North and our films combine engaging narrative, striking visuals and universal themes that help audiences learn about these little-known worlds. Our company is grounded in northern values. Most of our projects to date are filmed in Alaska, Yukon, Northwest Territories, Iceland and Norway. Our perspective is shaped by living in places where people know how to live an authentic life closer to the land.
