Set in the dramatic and alluring landscape of the North, Halifax filmmaker John Walker’s latest documentary tells the remarkable story that began in 1968 with a radical Inuit movement in Canada that would change the political landscape forever. It led to the largest land claim in western civilization, orchestrated by young visionary Inuit with a dream —the governance of their territory in the creation of Nunavut, fifteen years ago, on April 1, 1999. The story reveals the dark side of Canada’s attempt at sovereignty in the North and finds hope and inspiration from determined Inuit who changed the rules of the game. John Walker will be on hand for a Q & A after the screening.
