A very good movie

It is a rather obscure feature and it has been a while since I saw the damned  thing. I wonder how I actually ended up watching this movie but my guess is that it was a big critical success when it was released so I ended up watching  the damned thing in the movie theater when it was released. Basically, it is a very rare movie dealing with the Inuit culture and, only therefore, it was already a incredibly valuable picture. The success of this movie was mostly due to the fact that the makers didn’t want to compromise with the material whatsoever. For example, the characters only spoke Inuktitut, the most important Inuit dialect. A part from that, the story was based on some very old Inuit legend and it turned to be not only interesting but also pretty damned entertaining. I have to admit that it was maybe a bit on the long side (almost 3 hours) but the whole thing was usually quite spellbinding and the combination of realism and mysticism worked very well here.  To conclude, it is a very important movie, it's too bad it seems rather fogotten nowadays and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you, like me, are interested in discovering some other cultures.
