It is June 21 and there is a lot of excitement because the Wapos Bay community is celebrating National Aboriginal Day with a summer festival.Young T-Bear and Talon accept a challenge to climb the community’s fire tower. Gripped by a fear of heights, T-Bear is unable to come down, even when his father, Jacob, comes to the rescue. Reluctance to confront their fears leads to a misunderstanding and plenty of assumptions. Meanwhile, Raven is preparing for a fishing trip with her mom and kohkum, but begins to feel sick. Both T-Bear and Raven respond to their fears by first denying and avoiding them and then eventually overcoming them with the support of their family, friends and elders. No matter the source of fears there are real physical and emotional responses to them and, as we see in this story, guidance from family, friends and elders can lead to a journey through fear.

 Wapos Bay kids love adventure. And their playground is a vast area that has been home to their Cree ancestors for millennia. At Wapos Bay , modern life and ancient traditions collide. Hunting, foraging, dog sledding and the shimmering Northern Lights are part of everyday life, but so are video games, television and cell phones. Guided by the elders, the extended family's insatiable curiosity and the three children learn to balance traditional methods with new ones.

Wapos Bay is a stop-motion animation series that follows the adventures of 3 kids from a Cree community in northern Saskatchewan.
