I found out today on the news that the National Film Board of Canada
in collaboration with a number of partner organizations has recently
launched a new project called "Unikkausivut: Sharing Our Stories". It
is a collection of 40 films, old and new, showcasing the Inuit
experience. They are all original films, unaltered, and therefore are
a really interesting tool for exploring Inuit culture and history. In
addition, I think it's a great chance to consider the past and present
relationships between the Canadian Inuit and interacting cultures.
Films are screening around Canada and online.
Here are the links, firstly to the site and secondly to the playlist
of films. Hope you enjoy!
