Group Hunting on the Spring Ice: Part 2
Quentin Brown
Filmed over a period of three years, from summer 1963 to the late winter of 1965, and released in 1967, the Netsilik series is about the traditional lifestyle of Netsilingmiut living in the area around Kugaaruk.
In this episode, the men are out hunting on the sea ice while the women work at drying sealskins, cooking and gathering moss.
Please note that this is an archival film that makes use of the word "Eskimo," an outdated and offensive term. While the origin of the word is a matter of some contention, it is no longer used in Canada. The term was formally rejected by the Inuit Circumpolar Council in 1980 and has subsequently not been in use at the NFB for decades. This film is therefore a time-capsule of a bygone era, presented in its original version. The NFB apologizes for the offence caused.
