This pioneering documentary film depicts the lives of the indigenous Inuit people of Canada's northern Quebec region. Although the production contains some fictional elements, it vividly shows how its resourceful subjects survive in such a harsh climate, revealing how they construct their igloo homes and find food by hunting and fishing. The film also captures the beautiful, if unforgiving, frozen landscape of the Great White North, far removed from conventional civilization.
Survival in the frozen expanse depends entirely on the ingenuity used to build igloos and hunt through the ice. This silent relic captures the raw intensity of Inuit life against a landscape that offers no mercy.
