Inuk at the Anchorage Film Festival

Be sure to check out these screenings of the amazing Greenlandic film Inuk, sponsored by the Anchorage Film Festival! The film will be screened tonight (Friday, December 2nd) at 8 PM at the Bear Tooth, Thursday, December 8th at 8 PM at the Alaska Experience Theater (Large Theater), and again at 8:15 PM in the Small Theater. A full schedule is available here. Inuk was directed by Mike Magidson, co-written by Magidson and anthropologist Jean-Michel Huctin. From the Film Festival synopsis:

Created as an original road-movie on the sea-ice, “Inuk” is both an authentic story of Greenland today, a country torn between tradition and modernity, and a universal story about the quest for identity, transmission and rebirth. The film is intensified by the exceptional performance of the non-professional Inuit actors: teenagers from a home for neglected Inuit children and local seal hunters.

 See you there!
