Synopsis
The Pond Inlet Inuit people in Nunavut live with the memory of an ancient tragedy. In 1943, almost half the community’s members died within a few days. The camera takes on an incantatory tone as the film’s rhythm fits into the North’s immemorial time. Beyond the images, the unspeakable depth of memory breathes deeply in an inspired work.
