00:02:43 On top of the world...
00:02:45 ...nearer to the North Pole
00:02:48 ...there live numbers of
00:02:52 They are so proud...
00:02:53 ...that they call
00:02:55 ...the Men.
00:02:57 We, in turn, call them Eskimos...
00:03:00 ...meaning 'eaters of raw flesh'.
00:03:04 In the age of the atom bomb...
00:03:05 ...they still hunt
00:03:08 They share whatever they own.
00:03:10 They are so crude...
00:03:12 ...they don't know how to lie.
00:03:16 In this region of eternal ice...
00:03:17 ...it is not yet
00:03:20 ...is crown of creation.
00:03:23 But, as plentiful
00:03:25 ...so the women are scarce.
00:03:28 This man, Inuk...
00:03:30 ...does not have
00:03:34 For a long time he has
00:03:36 ...of having a wife
00:03:38 One who would sew his garments...
00:03:40 ...make his mittens,
00:03:42 ...and laugh with him...
00:03:45 ...which means the same
00:03:47 An important factor
00:03:50 ...is night.
00:04:28 Anarvik, Lulik.
00:04:32 Inuk...
00:04:35 ...the sound of your voice is good.
00:04:39 It is the end of last winter...
00:04:40 ...and you are still in bed.
00:04:42 The winter seems short for us.
00:04:46 How was it for you?
00:04:51 No woman to laugh with.
00:04:53 Too bad.
00:04:54 There is hot tea.
00:04:56 Have some and talk.
00:04:57 Gossip!
00:04:59 When are you going to make
00:05:18 Anarvik, this man has come to ask...
00:05:22 ...about the daughters...
00:05:23 ...of your brother.
00:05:24 We have expected them for two years.
00:05:27 They will come.
00:05:30 Maybe.
00:05:31 Maybe.
00:05:33 By now others may
00:05:54 Inuk, you're leaving us?
00:05:57 Why don't you cheer him up?
00:06:01 Make yourself beautiful.
00:06:09 So little stay after a long journey?
00:06:13 The dogs are hungry.
00:06:15 It is necessary to go hunting.
00:06:17 Alone?
00:06:19 Maybe.
00:06:20 You may laugh with
00:06:22 You have permission.
00:06:24 A little change does her good.
00:06:26 Makes her eyes shine.
00:06:28 You are a great friend, Anarvik.
00:06:30 But Anarvik...
00:06:32 ...this man is tired
00:06:38 He wishes to laugh...
00:06:41 ...with a woman of his own.
00:06:44 Till then, Anarvik...
00:06:45 ...he prefers to go hunting.
00:06:47 You are rude and ungrateful.
00:06:49 No rude, proud.
00:06:51 Rude, ungrateful...
00:06:53 ...to refuse a
00:06:57 Anarvik...
00:06:58 ...it was not meant
00:07:17 Anarvik.
00:09:38 Inuk.
00:09:48 Inuk.
00:09:49 Quiet.
00:09:57 Inuk.
00:09:58 Quiet.
00:10:01 A man has something to say to you.
00:10:03 One thing at a time.
00:10:05 Here, give someone a hand.
00:10:12 Anarvik...
00:10:14 ...I thank you for permission
00:10:17 This man was rude and ungrateful.
00:10:19 It is forgotten, so is the bump.
00:10:22 If you wish to bump me...
00:10:24 ...you may.
00:10:26 And lose a seal?
00:10:27 It is better to tell
00:10:29 Who?
00:10:31 My brother is dead...
00:10:33 ...but his widow, Powtee,
00:10:35 ...have arrived.
00:10:37 So?
00:10:42 What are they like?
00:10:47 When a seal is captured...
00:10:48 ...there are certain
00:10:50 ...to be taken care of.
00:10:52 The first is this:
00:10:54 ...since seals live
00:10:56 ...they are always thirsty...
00:10:57 ...and the hunter must
00:11:00 The soul of this animal will tell...
00:11:02 ...the souls of the other seals...
00:11:03 ...that it has received
00:11:06 Then they, too, will come
00:11:09 ...in the hope of getting a drink.
00:11:37 Are you satisfied?
00:11:39 What are their names?
00:11:41 Imina, Asiak...
00:11:42 ...and their mother.
00:11:44 Inuk.
00:11:49 Imina.
00:11:52 The distance was
00:11:54 ...to travel alone.
00:11:55 Kidok travelled with us.
00:11:57 Kidok is here?
00:11:58 He thought three women
00:12:02 The seal is not small.
00:12:05 Nobody wanted to kill it.
00:12:06 It insisted upon being caught.
00:12:13 Where is Kidok?
00:12:14 Kidok happened to
00:12:16 He went to hunt.
00:12:20 It's a good hide.
00:12:22 It is only...
00:12:23 ...a baby seal.
00:12:54 They are careful
00:12:56 ...when they eat
00:12:58 ...they will arouse the
00:13:04 The girls are not too young
00:13:07 ...but the heart of a seal is taboo.
00:13:10 Asiak's mother has worn her teeth
00:13:14 ...so her daughters do
00:13:16 ...when they were babies.
00:13:20 Come on, eat.
00:14:27 Welcome, Kidok.
00:14:31 Kidok.
00:14:33 It has been more than a season.
00:14:36 Come.
00:14:37 The walrus disappeared,
00:14:39 Killing it could not be avoided.
00:14:42 It is so small a
00:14:47 Kidok.
00:14:51 Inuk.
00:16:21 For someone who is so impatient...
00:16:23 ...the man seems
00:16:35 This hunter will leave now...
00:16:37 ...and come back with the...
00:16:39 ...biggest seal...
00:16:40 ...two stupid girls have ever seen.
00:16:41 Another hunter has already gone...
00:16:43 ...after such a seal.
00:16:45 Kidok?
00:16:50 This hunter will
00:16:53 You would do better
00:16:59 The sled is now ready.
00:17:10 Inuk, who do you like better?
00:17:13 Imina or Asiak?
00:17:15 The decision is difficult.
00:17:19 This man likes both women.
00:17:22 Why choose?
00:17:23 You must make up your mind...
00:17:26 ...or you'll never get a wife.
00:18:32 Inuk, listen to me.
00:18:35 Everyone knows one
00:18:38 But a woman is not a
00:18:42 A woman is a...
00:18:45 Then take Asiak.
00:18:48 But someone likes Imina.
00:18:50 More important than a woman...
00:18:51 ...is a man makes up his mind.
00:20:07 Anarvik.
00:20:08 What?
00:20:09 Look.
00:21:33 I'll show Kidok.
00:23:01 Somebody wants to show Imina...
00:23:04 ...this baby walrus.
00:23:06 Kidok has left taking with him...
00:23:09 ...my other daughter.
00:23:11 You see.
00:23:32 It happens...
00:23:34 ...somebody wanted Imina.
00:23:36 Kidok has given me a
00:23:39 ...so the marriage is made.
00:23:41 So...
00:23:44 ...here is...
00:23:46 ...a baby walrus.
00:23:48 Here is...
00:23:50 Here is bearskin...
00:23:53 ...here is snow knife.
00:23:56 Now Imina is married to me.
00:23:59 Why don't you take little Asiak?
00:24:01 This man has made decision.
00:24:03 She is just as worthless.
00:24:05 But there is nothing Imina can do...
00:24:07 ...that Asiak cannot.
00:24:09 But someone wants Imina and not Asiak.
00:24:12 Imina was yours for the asking.
00:24:14 It will be easy to catch Kidok.
00:24:16 But your dogs are tired.
00:24:17 They are still much faster than his.
00:24:19 When he is caught...
00:24:20 ...someone will shove
00:24:23 ...cut out his tongue and
00:24:26 Cut off his ears and
00:24:29 Then someone will open his chest...
00:24:31 ...and fill it with ice.
00:24:33 If you kill him...
00:24:34 ...no one will ever
00:24:38 Not even you?
00:24:41 Even a seal would do
00:24:43 ...if he took his woman.
00:24:44 A seal could kill...
00:24:45 ...and still have the
00:24:47 But a few things make a
00:24:50 Somebody will give him...
00:24:52 ...a good clubbing.
00:24:54 Good.
00:24:55 But if he puts up
00:24:58 ...he shall be killed.
00:24:59 If you cannot help killing
00:25:02 ...to conciliate his ghost.
00:25:04 An angry ghost is very dangerous.
00:25:09 Why don't you take Asiak along?
00:25:12 Then it will be easy to
00:25:15 He has paid for Imina...
00:25:17 ...and we cannot let
00:25:28 This old and useless
00:25:30 ...whichever husband takes Asiak.
00:25:36 Maybe you are not so stupid.
00:26:32 Kidok!
00:26:34 Kidok!
00:26:36 Asiak, come. We have caught Kidok.
00:26:40 Kidok, I catch you.
00:26:50 Why are you chasing Kidok?
00:26:53 To catch Imina.
00:26:56 You must be stupid.
00:27:19 Asiak.
00:27:20 Asiak.
00:27:22 Please get off, help make igloo.
00:27:25 Come.
00:27:26 Women stay here.
00:27:29 You stay and freeze.
00:28:43 Why don't you sleep?
00:28:45 Someone's feet are too cold.
00:30:39 Inuk, parka.
00:30:42 Look.
00:31:01 Inuk...
00:31:03 ...we saw you follow us.
00:31:04 I've come to take Imina.
00:31:07 If you put up resistance...
00:31:08 ...someone will kill you like a seal.
00:31:10 Why not stay with Asiak?
00:31:12 Someone doesn't want Asiak.
00:31:14 She can scrape hides
00:31:15 ...and do all the
00:31:17 This one wants Imina...
00:31:21 ...because...
00:31:27 Because...
00:31:28 Nobody can force a woman.
00:31:30 Imina is free to go
00:31:34 So.
00:31:41 In that case...
00:31:43 ...will Asiak join
00:31:45 ...that doesn't want to travel alone?
00:31:50 Yes.
00:32:11 You hurry.
00:32:34 My mother goes with us.
00:32:36 We will take her.
00:32:55 Someone has changed his mind...
00:32:57 ...and will take Asiak after all.
00:33:00 But you said one
00:33:03 Take whichever
00:33:05 ...as long as you reload my sled.
00:33:16 You come on.
00:33:20 You come. Go.
00:33:32 Kidok.
00:33:45 Asiak.
00:33:48 Asiak.
00:34:13 It is possible that this
00:34:16 ...to put down like a bear.
00:34:17 Asiak.
00:34:18 Asiak, you are my wife.
00:34:19 We must not fight. We must laugh.
00:34:21 Yes.
00:34:23 This one is your wife.
00:34:25 But you have chased Imina
00:34:29 So you will have to chase this one...
00:34:30 ...at least ten times as long.
00:35:23 This hunter will
00:35:25 Set the dogs on him.
00:35:26 We might lose some.
00:35:27 We have none to spare.
00:35:28 But dogs are faster.
00:35:30 This stupid man will use...
00:35:31 ...a slower but better way.
00:35:34 Soften this.
00:35:54 Here.
00:36:07 When this whalebone springs open...
00:36:09 ...the bear will get stomach ache.
00:36:23 Nanuk.
00:36:24 Nanuk.
00:37:28 The dogs would have been faster.
00:37:32 You are a great hunter.
00:37:35 The blade has just sprung open.
00:38:17 Soon you will rest
00:38:21 You are as easy to find as Kidok.
00:38:34 The hunter can rest
00:38:37 You'd rest better, so.
00:39:02 A stupid man is
00:39:06 A girl is grateful a great
00:39:10 For a man another
00:39:12 ...is not too much.
00:39:17 Now he has two useless women.
00:39:21 Now he has a wife.
00:39:25 He is proud to have...
00:39:27 ...a woman of his own.
00:39:31 Next time we see Anarvik
00:39:34 ...he says, 'Anarvik...
00:39:41 ...my friend, this man
00:39:45 ...no more permission.
00:39:48 From now on you ask
00:39:51 ...with my most
00:39:54 He could not even giggle.
00:40:48 Good manners require
00:40:50 ...before you touch someone's bear.
00:40:52 But you did not kill it.
00:40:53 We have been chasing
00:40:55 But you didn't kill it.
00:40:56 Of course, not.
00:40:58 It was already dying
00:41:00 No.
00:41:03 Perhaps it died of fright from big...
00:41:05 ...thunder you may have heard.
00:41:07 But this man killed it.
00:41:10 How?
00:41:14 How about this?
00:41:16 It has no sharp
00:41:19 You did not club bear.
00:41:21 How could you kill?
00:41:22 This one will show you.
00:41:44 Asiak...
00:41:46 ...look.
00:41:52 You may touch it.
00:42:00 To use it well...
00:42:02 ...it is placed here.
00:42:08 Press it here.
00:42:13 My igloo is not far off.
00:42:15 A worthless wife
00:42:19 But first a hunter must skin his bear.
00:42:35 Hiko.
00:42:38 Asiak.
00:42:46 Inuk.
00:42:50 Very good bear hunters.
00:42:55 You killed this bear?
00:43:00 We did.
00:43:01 So many useless skins.
00:43:04 Are they good for mops?
00:43:12 You know of the white man?
00:43:15 It is not impossible.
00:43:18 The white man has no liking
00:43:23 He likes fox skins too much.
00:43:25 But he has many guns.
00:43:27 And you like the ermine tail...
00:43:29 ...and the red grease
00:43:33 Very pretty?
00:43:35 He lives in great house of wood.
00:43:38 It is sticky with the heat and...
00:43:40 ...he suffers from cold all the time.
00:43:41 He is truly stupid.
00:43:44 But for enough of the fox skins...
00:43:46 ...he will give you
00:43:48 ...with which you
00:43:51 So?
00:43:54 This is what the
00:43:57 How many skins are necessary...
00:43:59 ...to have such a gun?
00:44:00 Five times a man counted to the end.
00:44:10 Someone could bring
00:44:12 Much better.
00:44:13 White man wants fox skins only.
00:44:16 His brain isn't very sharp...
00:44:17 ...and his liking are queer.
00:44:19 But that is what he wants.
00:44:33 Somebody only wants
00:44:36 The bullet jumped back.
00:44:38 That shows the power of the gun.
00:44:40 It slays any animal from a distance.
00:44:43 That is, if you do
00:44:46 This hunter must have such a gun.
00:44:49 When you have piled up
00:44:52 ...present yourself
00:44:54 ...which is four rivers South...
00:44:56 ...and say 'Ittimangnerk sends me'.
00:44:58 Ittimangnerk.
00:45:00 And the white man
00:45:02 Then you'll be
00:45:04 ...such beautiful things as mine.
00:45:10 Such a gun.
00:45:12 Asiak...
00:45:14 ...from now on we follow the fox.
00:45:23 That year, the animals
00:45:25 ...had the happiest
00:45:27 ...of their lives.
00:45:36 The dogs still pursued
00:45:40 ...hoping Inuk would
00:45:42 But he never came.
00:45:46 The great hunter had almost
00:45:49 ...and make provision
00:45:51 Only one thought occupied his mind.
00:45:53 The fox.
00:46:06 With the hundred skins
00:46:09 ...Inuk, Asiak and Powtee
00:46:13 A journey that
00:46:15 ...and one full winter.
00:46:17 Asiak, look.
00:46:58 We are here.
00:47:00 So, get off.
00:47:02 You too, help.
00:48:03 Look at that.
00:48:05 My father should see this.
00:48:07 He is always saying that the bear...
00:48:09 ...has disappeared from the bay.
00:48:11 The Reverend who
00:48:13 ...had it pretty hard.
00:48:15 Young fellows like
00:48:28 Bear?
00:48:30 Bear, no. Wolf.
00:48:33 Whole family?
00:49:03 Nice game.
00:49:06 Now someone must go and make trade.
00:49:08 We play later.
00:49:11 Up to ten years ago
00:49:13 ...were like those three, magnificent.
00:49:15 Asiak...
00:49:18 ...look at white man.
00:49:20 Undik, find out what they want.
00:49:22 This stupid woman
00:49:24 ...as white as snow,
00:49:28 Can one help you?
00:49:30 One wished to talk to white man.
00:49:33 What about?
00:49:36 It came to pass one met Ittimangnerk.
00:49:39 So one has brought
00:49:47 So?
00:49:49 One hears white man likes fox skin.
00:49:56 Maybe.
00:49:59 And what do you
00:50:01 Is too much to hope for...
00:50:03 ...to have gun?
00:50:22 You want to try it?
00:50:24 There is a bullet in the barrel.
00:50:31 Look out. Watch out for that guy.
00:50:33 Go outside if you want to shoot it.
00:50:43 This makes more noise than other.
00:50:46 If you want bullets to go with it...
00:50:49 ...you will have to
00:50:50 Of course.
00:50:52 One would kill all
00:50:59 You tell white man...
00:51:00 ...he has made someone very happy.
00:51:03 If he wishes, he has my permission...
00:51:06 ...to laugh with my beautiful wife.
00:51:08 But the white man does not laugh
00:51:12 He does not permit
00:51:14 So?
00:51:20 Asiak.
00:51:22 The white man does not permit...
00:51:24 ...laughing in this house.
00:51:28 He must be a sad man...
00:51:30 ...this white, red man.
00:51:39 Try some of this. It is very good.
00:52:00 Music, only music.
00:52:03 Sit down.
00:52:11 Dance?
00:52:14 Dance.
00:52:41 Try some of this.
00:52:43 It doesn't taste good...
00:52:44 ...but it will make
00:52:47 My wife doesn't complain.
00:53:00 You like it?
00:53:45 Dance.
00:53:55 It is hot here.
00:53:56 No.
00:53:59 Proprietor does not approve...
00:54:01 ...of naked people.
00:54:02 Who is proprietor?
00:54:04 The white man, my boss.
00:54:18 Undik, that'll be all for tonight.
00:54:21 White man, why is it you can say...
00:54:23 ...when it should be
00:54:26 You behave yourselves, like the rest.
00:54:29 It is best that you go to sleep.
00:54:55 Inuk...
00:55:00 ...are you awake?
00:55:07 There is something wrong.
00:55:15 Something is wrong with the white man.
00:55:20 If his gun were any good...
00:55:24 ...why does he eat
00:55:27 ...out of a tin can?
00:55:32 Why does he never smile?
00:55:37 Why doesn't he laugh
00:55:43 Why doesn't he know
00:55:46 ...is quicker to build...
00:55:49 ...and easier to keep
00:55:53 What's all this talking?
00:55:56 Why is the crazy woman making noise?
00:55:59 Excuse a silly woman for...
00:56:02 ...talking before
00:56:06 But...
00:56:07 ...she thinks that the
00:56:12 If he is crazy...
00:56:15 ...we should go away
00:56:17 ...as fast as possible...
00:56:20 ...because the craziness is catching.
00:56:26 It seems advisable
00:56:28 ...and never come back.
00:56:29 We must come back.
00:56:33 We must bring back
00:56:37 Then you can get your bullets.
00:56:39 A woman will take a new husband.
00:56:43 There are more men than women.
00:57:02 This worthless woman
00:57:05 One who can get along
00:57:08 ...and is a good provider.
00:57:13 A woman is stupid and ugly...
00:57:16 ...but sometimes lucky
00:57:20 ...to make her man feel comfortable.
00:57:23 Somebody can do with a woman.
00:57:27 You look skinny.
00:57:30 Are you a hunter?
00:57:32 Such a good hunter that
00:57:34 ...but enough
00:57:42 Have you all your teeth?
00:57:44 I have all my teeth, except two.
00:57:54 Somebody will go
00:58:05 You stay.
00:58:06 You heard the woman,
00:58:07 The woman already has a man.
00:58:15 Hurry, man.
00:58:17 It is necessary to build a new igloo.
00:58:19 This is not the other man.
00:58:21 This is your husband, Inuk.
00:58:25 He wants to come with you.
00:58:29 One is as bad as the other.
00:58:32 You will get your sled ready.
00:58:34 This one will get your parka.
00:58:44 You'd better take it.
00:58:46 Give it away to somebody else.
00:58:48 Give it to him.
00:58:49 Come along.
00:58:50 This old woman has not
00:59:01 Good morning.
00:59:04 I am Father Angeli.
00:59:07 Are the young ones here?
00:59:10 Inside.
00:59:19 The Lord be with you.
00:59:23 No, just Asiak, Powtee and me.
00:59:26 We do not know Lord.
00:59:32 A very short sleep ago...
00:59:35 ...you both offended him.
00:59:38 We did not know.
00:59:40 One must apologize.
00:59:42 If you will listen to my
00:59:46 ...the Lord will
00:59:49 ...and will follow
00:59:53 So.
00:59:54 We do not want another with us.
00:59:58 Maybe he is good hunter.
01:00:01 We will be pleased if
01:00:05 He must bring his own sled.
01:00:08 Thank you.
01:00:13 Will this Lord
01:00:16 He'll bring you faith.
01:00:20 Faith?
01:00:22 Faith, that wonderful light...
01:00:26 ...that drives
01:00:31 Light!
01:00:33 It is good, Inuk.
01:00:35 If it is the kind
01:00:37 ...we could save it for the winter...
01:00:39 ...and our eyes would
01:00:51 Here is something you will like.
01:00:54 I come to give, not receive.
01:00:57 It is all marrow.
01:00:59 It is not much...
01:00:59 ...but it is old and full of worms.
01:01:02 You see?
01:01:03 Another time, not right now.
01:01:06 But is best we have.
01:01:15 Has this white man come to insult us?
01:01:18 Maybe he is used to different food.
01:01:23 Men do not live by bread alone.
01:01:28 Maybe he wants to laugh with a woman.
01:01:43 He has the face of a
01:01:53 Make yourself beautiful.
01:01:56 I am here for one purpose only.
01:01:59 Listen to me.
01:02:01 You believe in the powers
01:02:04 ...and you are
01:02:08 I want you now to learn about our God.
01:02:13 Last night I realized you
01:02:17 ...and I would like
01:02:19 ...the beauty of
01:02:22 ...that forbid you to
01:02:26 ...that considers marriage sacred...
01:02:28 ...and a wife the most beautiful
01:02:34 Man...
01:02:36 ...this hunter's worthless wife...
01:02:38 ...has never laughed with another man.
01:02:45 She will now laugh with you.
01:02:50 No.
01:02:50 No, please. Do not be ashamed.
01:02:54 This one will leave.
01:02:55 No.
01:02:56 No.
01:02:57 It's a sin!
01:02:59 It's evil, bad!
01:03:03 You refuse our food.
01:03:04 Who are you to insult my wife?
01:03:07 You coward. You are bad.
01:03:10 You are rude.
01:03:11 You have no manners.
01:03:18 Maybe you bumped too hard.
01:03:23 His head is too soft.
01:03:27 One did not intend to kill.
01:03:32 Let us leave at once.
01:03:33 The ghost of the
01:03:35 ...too much trouble.
01:03:42 You must cut off a toe and a finger...
01:03:44 ...and put them into his mouth...
01:03:45 ...to conciliate his ghost.
01:03:47 Do you think one does
01:03:50 Hurry.
01:03:50 Hurry.
01:04:36 Asiak, someone forgot gun.
01:04:38 No, Inuk, your
01:04:42 You gave it?
01:04:44 If we must eat fox meat
01:04:47 ...then go and get
01:04:49 But someone got rid of skins,
01:04:51 It's a bad trade.
01:04:53 It's a bargain.
01:05:03 Two long polar days,
01:05:05 ...from one season to another...
01:05:07 ...Inuk and his
01:05:09 ...into the wilderness.
01:05:11 They have forgotten about
01:05:13 ...but other white men have not.
01:05:20 Asiak!
01:05:28 Get up, old woman.
01:05:29 Just a useless old woman.
01:05:58 Mother.
01:06:00 Let an old woman die in peace.
01:06:03 You and Inuk must go North to hunt.
01:06:05 No, mother. Stay with us.
01:06:08 You need much food...
01:06:09 ...for the baby inside you.
01:06:12 The long winter night has come.
01:06:15 They stop and build an
01:06:19 They treat her with
01:06:22 But Powtee is now
01:06:25 Her teeth are too
01:06:27 Her hands too stiff to sew garments.
01:06:30 Since the child Asiak has
01:06:33 ...to enter the world, the
01:06:37 ...must be left to die.
01:06:39 For her, the final
01:06:45 You have given me extra days...
01:06:47 ...but the time has
01:06:49 She should not worry.
01:06:50 Inuk, say that to her.
01:06:53 Say that a great
01:06:58 We will say when the time should be.
01:07:02 Old woman, have you decided?
01:07:10 She has decided.
01:07:12 Asiak knows her last
01:07:14 ...from going will fail.
01:07:16 She cannot change the
01:07:19 Laws dictated by the
01:07:22 There is no place for
01:08:05 Come close, little one.
01:08:11 An old woman has been
01:08:14 ...instead of her daughter.
01:08:16 What do you want to say?
01:08:18 Soon you're going to have a child.
01:08:20 For you that is an unknown experience.
01:08:24 An ignorant girl has
01:08:28 With people it is a little different.
01:08:31 Try to remember what an
01:08:36 First of all...
01:08:37 ...at the last moment, the
01:08:41 After it has stepped into the
01:08:45 ...unlike the puppies
01:08:49 You must cut it from you
01:08:53 ...or with your teeth.
01:08:54 Cut it free immediately.
01:08:56 Otherwise it will die and you with it.
01:09:00 How wise you are.
01:09:02 Now listen carefully.
01:09:04 As soon as the child is born...
01:09:06 ...look to see if
01:09:09 If it is a boy, you must
01:09:12 Then rub it with blubber.
01:09:14 But if it is a girl...
01:09:15 ...you must put
01:09:17 ...and fill her
01:09:20 Why?
01:09:21 To raise a useless
01:09:24 ...the arrival of a boy.
01:09:26 It is indispensable
01:09:29 ...at once in the family.
01:09:31 He will bring in the food when you...
01:09:34 ...and your husband grow old...
01:09:37 ...which happens very quickly.
01:09:41 Once you have a boy,
01:09:45 But now, you must put
01:09:48 ...at once, or you
01:09:53 Is that all clear to you, little one?
01:09:56 Almost all, mother.
01:09:58 Somebody's glad it is.
01:10:45 She waits for the shape
01:10:49 She thinks of the joy of Inuk.
01:10:52 The day he will meet the
01:10:56 ...on the vast white sea.
01:10:59 She knows the future
01:11:03 Her knowledge of life
01:11:06 She accepts without bitterness
01:11:10 That the flesh must perish...
01:11:12 ...so that the flesh may live.
01:11:15 She must die so
01:11:18 ...for the day Inuk will slay
01:11:24 And so she will return to them.
01:13:14 It came to pass woman
01:13:21 So.
01:13:23 Isn't he beautiful?
01:13:29 Someone has seen bear cubs...
01:13:30 ...that were better looking.
01:13:31 He will improve as he grows.
01:13:33 He has everything he needs.
01:13:35 So.
01:13:37 Even a name. His name is Papik.
01:13:41 Truly?
01:13:45 How do you know his name is Papik?
01:13:47 Because a useless
01:13:55 Papik.
01:13:57 Papik.
01:13:59 Papik.
01:14:02 Papik.
01:14:03 Papik.
01:14:09 He has hair.
01:14:14 Has toes.
01:14:18 And a nose.
01:14:23 Asiak.
01:14:26 He has no teeth.
01:14:30 You must have broken some taboo.
01:14:31 Not to my knowledge.
01:14:32 Did you eat land animals...
01:14:33 ...together with sea animal?
01:14:35 Did you eat white caribou
01:14:37 No.
01:14:38 You must have done something wrong.
01:14:39 How about you breaking some taboo?
01:14:40 Me?
01:14:41 Think hard.
01:14:42 Perhaps the ghost of the white man.
01:14:50 Maybe.
01:14:54 Is it possible a stupid woman
01:14:57 A mother would have told her.
01:15:03 Something must be done.
01:15:07 As he grows bigger a silly mother...
01:15:10 ...could chew his food.
01:15:12 And when you die?
01:15:13 Men will mock him...
01:15:14 ...and women scorn him all his life.
01:15:19 He must be put out on the ice, now.
01:15:27 Shall a father do it alone?
01:15:32 It will be better if
01:15:35 ...who loves her
01:15:38 ...from the powers
01:15:50 There he is.
01:15:52 Alone?
01:15:53 There should be three of them.
01:15:55 I can make out at least two.
01:15:58 Can we land on this stuff?
01:16:00 Soft, but it should be alright.
01:16:48 Are you Inuk?
01:16:48 I am Ittimangnerk and this
01:16:53 We are looking for
01:16:55 He's travelling this way
01:16:58 You see them?
01:17:00 Once, more than a season ago.
01:17:03 Much more than a season ago.
01:17:07 My wife will make you some tea.
01:17:09 Our igloo is just nearby.
01:17:11 Thanks, we'd better get going.
01:17:26 Wrong man?
01:17:29 We got trouble.
01:17:33 How long will it take you to fix?
01:17:35 I've radioed base.
01:17:37 You can forget about
01:17:39 What do you mean?
01:17:41 By the time this is fixed,
01:17:44 Next year, don't
01:17:48 This is a job for sleds and dogs.
01:17:51 Those Eskimos live near here?
01:17:55 Tea? They offered us tea.
01:17:58 Take it.
01:18:27 Papik, look.
01:18:31 A fawn.
01:18:46 Asiak, come see.
01:18:50 Where you look?
01:18:51 No, there.
01:18:52 Asiak, how many do you think?
01:19:01 Papik.
01:19:03 Papik, today you become great hunter.
01:19:16 There are so many of them.
01:19:17 Do you think they will stampede?
01:19:19 Even so you will be safe here.
01:19:21 Papik, you stay.
01:19:23 Papik.
01:19:40 Inuk.
01:19:43 Don't let him wander.
01:19:44 You want to know too much too soon.
01:19:49 Papik, you can play here.
01:20:11 Eskimo.
01:20:14 Inuk?
01:20:16 White men.
01:20:19 You are so far North.
01:20:22 You are lost?
01:20:23 We came all the way just to see you.
01:20:27 Truly?
01:20:30 My igloo is not far away.
01:20:32 We have some tea and talk.
01:20:34 Where is your sled?
01:20:37 You killed a white man, Inuk.
01:20:39 Of course.
01:20:41 Many seasons ago, yes.
01:20:43 We've been looking
01:20:46 Why?
01:20:46 To take you with us to be punished.
01:20:49 Punished?
01:20:50 But someone was
01:20:52 Anyone who kills a
01:20:56 After which he is hung from a
01:21:00 Dies?
01:21:08 One can see you are joking.
01:21:10 If you were going to
01:21:12 Why take me on a
01:21:14 That's the law.
01:21:17 My father's laws have not been broken.
01:21:20 Get up.
01:21:28 You got a knife here?
01:21:29 Of course.
01:21:32 But someone needs that for hunting.
01:21:33 Come on, get going.
01:21:36 Come on.
01:21:39 One's wife is waiting.
01:21:41 She will worry.
01:21:42 Only until another man shows up.
01:22:16 It is best to stop
01:22:22 We are on the sea.
01:22:24 The wind can cause the ice to open.
01:22:27 Get up.
01:22:31 Let this one drive, who knows the ice.
01:22:34 He got us here.
01:22:48 The ice is gone. Watch it.
01:22:55 Help.
01:23:02 Inuk, come and help me.
01:23:06 He's a dead man.
01:23:09 Do not be foolish.
01:23:10 Don't touch the water.
01:23:24 Help me. His clothes are frozen.
01:23:52 The bears will enjoy your friend.
01:23:56 Instead of foolishly
01:23:59 ...you should have
01:24:10 We have six dogs and a knife.
01:24:13 We will keep going on foot and eat...
01:24:15 ...the dogs if we have to.
01:24:16 On your feet.
01:24:19 Come on.
01:24:22 We're going.
01:24:23 My igloo is closer
01:24:27 This one is going his own way.
01:24:32 Inuk, stop.
01:24:35 You're my prisoner.
01:24:38 You are that strong?
01:25:12 Your hands are frozen.
01:25:38 Take off your gloves.
01:25:43 Can't you hear? Take off your gloves.
01:25:59 It hurts.
01:26:00 Good, it means life is coming back.
01:26:03 Only death is painless.
01:26:12 You can't stand pain?
01:26:27 To the white man, Arctic ice
01:26:31 ...but to the Eskimo
01:26:34 The skin of an animal dipped
01:26:38 ...will make a satisfactory sled.
01:26:42 One remembers this place.
01:26:46 Man...
01:26:48 ...this one thinks food is nearby.
01:26:50 Don't sleep.
01:26:54 If you sleep...
01:26:56 ...dogs will eat sled...
01:27:00 ...or you.
01:27:36 Go on.
01:27:39 Get out of it.
01:27:43 Inuk!
01:27:46 Inuk!
01:28:19 Man, don't get scared.
01:28:23 Now we'll never get back.
01:28:33 Someone has
01:28:38 We will get back.
01:28:49 Inuk...
01:28:53 ...when we get back...
01:28:56 ...I'm going to have to arrest you.
01:29:01 You would have me punished?
01:29:05 It is my duty.
01:29:09 Not even a white man would punish...
01:29:12 ...one who has saved his life.
01:29:14 You killed a man.
01:29:16 It was not meant to kill.
01:29:18 It makes no difference.
01:29:20 If you come back with me...
01:29:22 ...I'll arrest you.
01:29:24 That is how it is.
01:29:26 That's our law.
01:30:48 Don't sleep.
01:30:50 Man, wake up.
01:30:54 You sleep, you die.
01:31:21 Inuk...
01:31:23 ...you have been away for many sleeps.
01:31:28 Asiak.
01:31:31 Papik.
01:31:33 Papik.
01:31:36 Papik.
01:31:38 Food has been scarce.
01:31:40 Did you make a good catch?
01:31:43 Miserable catch.
01:31:49 Papik.
01:31:52 This man, and one other...
01:31:55 ...took me away to be killed.
01:31:57 Why?
01:31:58 For what happened
01:32:01 Two men took you?
01:32:03 They had guns.
01:32:07 Other man...
01:32:10 ...foolishly got himself dead.
01:32:12 This man's not bad.
01:32:17 A stupid woman
01:32:20 ...if he were dead too.
01:32:48 Good and old.
01:32:50 You're not like the missionary.
01:32:52 Perhaps the missionary
01:32:55 We thought we would
01:32:57 ...another white man.
01:33:00 Papik, not too close.
01:33:02 Dogs are ready.
01:33:04 So am I.
01:33:06 Inuk, you must not forget your charms.
01:33:09 So.
01:33:16 Papik.
01:33:18 Papik, put that on sled.
01:33:24 Inuk, I want to get this clear.
01:33:26 I want to be sure we
01:33:28 If you come back with
01:33:33 You're my prisoner.
01:33:37 Surely that is forgotten.
01:33:38 I have not forgotten.
01:33:40 The men who sent
01:33:41 They will look for
01:33:46 But the men who
01:33:47 ...maybe they are dead.
01:33:49 They'll have written
01:33:52 Book?
01:33:53 The men will die.
01:33:54 The book will remain.
01:33:57 What is a book?
01:33:59 A book is...
01:34:01 ...words.
01:34:03 The words say Inuk is a murderer.
01:34:05 No, Inuk is not a murderer.
01:34:07 Let this man explain.
01:34:09 Explain. How can you explain?
01:34:11 What can you say?
01:34:14 The man was rude.
01:34:16 He insulted my home.
01:34:19 He refused our oldest meat.
01:34:22 But most white men...
01:34:23 ...are not fond of old meat.
01:34:25 But the worms were fresh.
01:34:26 And when someone proposed
01:34:30 ...to laugh with Asiak...
01:34:33 ...he refused.
01:34:34 Let a woman explain.
01:34:36 A woman combed her hair...
01:34:38 ...greased her face with blubber...
01:34:40 ...and cleaned herself to be polite.
01:34:42 A husband was ready to leave.
01:34:45 What does the man do?
01:34:47 He starts to run.
01:34:48 So someone grabbed
01:34:50 ...to bang his head against the wall.
01:34:52 Not to kill.
01:34:54 Just to crack his head a little.
01:34:57 Unfortunately it cracked a lot.
01:34:59 When someone bumps
01:35:02 ...the wall falls apart.
01:35:03 Not his head.
01:35:05 Inuk, listen.
01:35:07 No judge in the
01:35:09 ...you offering another man your wife.
01:35:12 But it is our custom.
01:35:15 White men don't
01:35:18 But...
01:35:20 Never mind.
01:35:22 You don't lend your wife...
01:35:24 ...as if she were a sled.
01:35:29 Someone would rather
01:35:32 You lend your sled...
01:35:33 ...it comes back cracked.
01:35:34 You lend your knife,
01:35:37 You, lend your dogs.
01:35:39 They come back tired and crawling.
01:35:41 But if you love your wife...
01:35:43 ...no matter how
01:35:45 ...she always comes back like new.
01:35:54 Man.
01:35:56 Man.
01:35:58 You don't understand?
01:36:02 I understand.
01:36:04 Good.
01:36:05 But the other men live by the book.
01:36:07 There you are a murderer.
01:36:12 We must make them understand.
01:36:15 Otherwise Papik, Asiak and me...
01:36:17 ...we cannot go
01:36:19 That is our law.
01:36:24 We change the book.
01:36:26 Asiak, you bring the food.
01:36:35 Asiak...
01:36:37 ...they'll never understand.
01:36:46 When you come to a strange land...
01:36:48 ...you should bring
01:37:12 Goodbye.
01:37:14 We don't go to trading post?
01:37:16 I go.
01:37:17 You don't.
01:37:20 Why?
01:37:21 Inuk, we couldn't change a thing.
01:37:25 You'll have to go back.
01:37:26 You mustn't be seen here by anyone.
01:37:28 But, Man...
01:37:29 Until we go in there,
01:37:33 I can let you go.
01:37:35 All I do is fill in a form...
01:37:36 ...sign a report and
01:37:39 Inuk is dead.
01:37:41 But there is only one Inuk.
01:37:44 Inuk is here.
01:37:46 He has no wish to be dead.
01:37:48 They will have to punish you...
01:37:49 ...because the rules
01:37:52 The rules have grown stronger
01:37:55 Go back.
01:37:57 Man.
01:37:59 You and me...
01:38:00 ...we make them understand.
01:38:03 Alright...
01:38:11 ...I'll explain it in a different way.
01:38:15 I don't want you with me.
01:38:19 I'm sick of you.
01:38:20 But...
01:38:21 I wouldn't have Asiak's
01:38:23 ...if it was offered.
01:38:25 When we get to the trading post...
01:38:27 ...I'll put a bullet in
01:38:29 I'll feed Asiak and that
01:38:32 Because I hate bear.
01:38:35 I don't want you with me.
01:38:49 Inuk.
01:38:50 Asiak, what did we do to him?
01:38:55 White men.
01:38:57 They are truly
01:39:00 They are as bad as the bear.
01:39:04 Worse.
01:39:08 Much worse.
01:39:11 We go back?
01:39:15 We go back.
