Spring, MD

Co-presented by the AFI Silver Theatre and the National Museum
of the American Indian.
Introduction by Melissa Bisagni, Program Manager of Media Initiatives,
National Museum of the American Indian.
The
Arnait Video Productions collective, which has been producing
video of Inuit women's stories since 1991, has collaborated on
a remarkable feature film, winner of the Best Feature at the 2008
American Indian Film Festival and imagiNATIVE 2008. The film's
culturally authentic, observational style links it to the other
Igloolik Isuma productions Atanarjuat/The
Fast Runner and Journals
of Knud Rasmussen, and like the earlier films, gives voice
to the Inuit history of northern Quebec in a unique cinematic
voice.
