  • Marie-Hélène Cousineau and Madeline Piujuq Ivalu
    A FILM BY MARIE-HÉLÈNE COUSINEau and MadELINE PIUJUQ IvaLU Uvanga (Myself) is the second feature film from the Arnait Video Collective, the same team that won Best Canadian First Feature Film at the 2008 Toronto International Film Festival. Directed by Marie-Hélène Cousineau and Madeline Piujuq Ivalu, the film was shot entirely on location in Nunavut. Anna is nervous when she and her son, Tomas, STORY | arrive in the small, close-knit community of Igloolik in the Canadian Arctic. SYNOPSIS Anna had a short-lived affair with Tomas’s Inuk father when she worked in Igloolik. But Tomas, now 14 years old, was born and raised in his mother’s native city of Montreal and never knew much about his origins. Tomas is bright, strong, and curious about his father’s culture, but his father is no longer around to show him the way. For Tomas’s mother and Inuit family, the joy of his homecoming is mixed with memories of a brief and painful chapter in their shared history. Over the course of two weeks that seem to blend into one long day under the midnight sun, Anna and Thomas strive to reconnect with the family they can no longer ignore. For more information please write to: [email protected] The characters of Anna and Tomas were not DIRECTOR'S inspired by anyone in particular, but there are many families like theirs in the world today: NOTE | separated, mixed-blood children discovering their roots and shaping their identities; grandparents connecting with newly found grandchildren; and adults trying to mend broken relationships.

  • 1 Pocahontas No More: Indigenous Women Standing up for Each Other
    1 Pocahontas No More: Indigenous Women Standing Up for Each Other in Twenty-First Century Cinema Sophie Mayer, Independent Scholar Abstract: Sydney Freeland’s fiction feature Drunktown’s Finest (2014) represents the return of Indigenous women’s feature filmmaking after a hiatus caused by neoconservative politics post-9/11. In the two decades since Disney’s Pocahontas (1995), filmmakers such as Valerie Red-Horse have challenged erasure and appropriation, but without coherent distribution or scholarship. Indigenous film festivals and settler state funding have led to a reestablishment, creating a cohort that includes Drunktown’s Finest. Repudiating both the figure of Pocahontas, as analysed by Elise M. Marubbio, and the erasure of Indigenous women in the new Western genre described by Susan Faludi, Drunktown’s Finest relates to both the work of white ally filmmakers of the early 2000s, such as Niki Caro, and to the work of contemporary Indigenous filmmakers working in both features (Marie-Hélène Cousineau and Madeline Ivalu of Arnait) and shorts (Danis Goulet, Elle-Máijá Tailfeathers). Foregrounding female agency, the film is framed by a traditional puberty ceremony that—through the presence of Felixia, a transgender/nádleeh woman—is configured as non-essentialist. The ceremony alters the temporality of the film, and inscribes a powerful new figure for Indigenous futures in the form of a young woman, in line with contemporary Indigenous online activism, and with the historical figure of Pocahontas. A young, brown-skinned, dark-haired woman is framed against a landscape—the land to which she belongs. Her traditional, cream-coloured clothes and jewellery move with the movement of her body against the wind; brilliant washes of colour change with the changing light.

  • The Afterlife of Native American Images
    1. ‘Will making movies do the sheep any good?’ The afterlife of Native American images Michelle H. Raheja n 1966, under the auspices of a National Science Foundation grant, anthropologists Sol Worth and John Adair, with their research assistant Richard Chalfen, travelled to Pine Springs, in Dinétah, Arizona, to teach INavajo students how to use film technology for the creation of community- based films and, according to Randolph Lewis, ‘to see if the results would reveal a uniquely Navajo perspective’ (2012, p. 126). The students produced a series of short, experimental and documentary films, many of which have been preserved. They are important because they demonstrate a Navajo visual aesthetics that diverges from that of mainstream cinema culture. According to Lewis, the filmmakers exhibited ‘a sense of intercultural respect that had often been absent from Western ethnographic films about Navajo people’ by eschewing close-up shots; filming mock ceremonies rather than actual healing events to avoid offending community members; and shooting long, non-diegetic landscape sequences (p. 127). Although the resulting films might be interpreted by a mainstream audience as boring, confusing, and/or less personal, the Navajo filmmakers used new technology to produce the kinds of visual images that reflected their personal and collective interests and ways of perceiving the world. Prior to selecting the students, the anthropologists visited Sam Yazzie, a silversmith and healer from Pine Springs, in his hogan (traditional Navajo home) to request permission to begin the project. Yazzie asked the filmmakers, through his interpreter, an oft-cited series of questions about the ‘use’ of film: ‘Will making movies do the sheep any harm?’ After Worth assured him that it would not, Yazzie asked, ‘Will making movies do the sheep any good?’ Again, Worth said that it would not.

  • One Day in the Life-Preliminary Notes-05Jul19
    Kingulliit Productions and Isuma Productions present ᓄᐊ ᐱᐅᒑᑦᑑᑉ ᐅᓪᓗᕆᓚᐅᖅᑕᖓ ONE DAY IN THE LIFE OF NOAH PIUGATTUK *** PRELIMINARY PRESS NOTES – AS OF JULY 5, 2019 *** FEATURING Apayata Kotierk as Noah Piugattuk Kim Bodnia Isumataq (Boss) Benjamin Kunuk Evaluarjuk (Ningiuq) Mark Taqqaugaq Amaaq Neeve Uttak Tatigat Tessa Kunuk Nattuk Zacharias Kunuk Writer / Producer / Director Norman Cohn Writer / Director of Photography / Editor Jonathan Frantz Producer / Co-director of Photography / Co-editor Lucy Tulugarjuk First Assistant Director Susan Avingaq Production Designer Carol Kunnuk Production Supervisor Noah Piugattuk Music Running Time: 113 minutes Languages: Inuktitut, English DCP – Dolby 5.1 Shot in 4K Digital Kapuivik, north Baffin Island, 1961. Noah Piugattuk’s nomadic Inuit band live and hunt by dogteam, just as his ancestors did when he was born in 1900. When the white man known as Boss arrives in camp, what appears as a chance meeting soon opens up the prospect of momentous change. In today’s contentious global media environment, when millions of people have been driven from their homes worldwide, Isuma media art in the UN Year of Indigenous Languages looks at the forced relocation of families from an Inuit point of view. Our name Isuma means ‘to think,’ a state of thoughtfulness, intelligence or an idea. As this film illuminates Canada’s relocation of Inuit in the 1950s and 60s, we seek to reclaim our history and imagine a different future. DIRECTOR’S VISION – ZACHARIAS KUNUK Igloolik elder Noah Piugattuk was born in 1900 and passed away in 1996. His life story is that of Canada’s Inuit in the 20th century – that of my parents’ generation and my own.

  • NITV on Isumatv
    NITV on IsumaTV Increasing Inuktitut Language Content across Nunavut Communities • 7 Communities Connected to Hi-speed Inuit Website • All-Inuktitut TV Channel Broadcast to Home Television • Inuktitut Educational Content Direct to Students and Teachers Inuit and Aboriginal communities worldwide face loss of language and social breakdown from 21st century Globalization and Climate Change. Foreign language media overload is a major cause of language loss, especially for youth. Communities can reverse this trend by vastly increasing local language media content. Low-cost video and internet tools revitalize language, protect cultural identity, improve education and create jobs for the future using new digital media technology. IsumaTV [www.isuma.tv] is an interactive social networking website of Inuit and Aboriginal films launched in January 2008. Hundreds of hours of Inuktitut-language content and over a thousand films in 28 languages now can be seen by anyone anywhere with a good internet connection and a computer, laptop or iPod. Unfortunately, most Inuit communities don‘t have sufficient bandwidth to download IsumaTV’s video content. With 7.5 million hits worldwide in its first fifteen months, IsumaTV films viewed hi-speed in Toronto, Paris, Helsinki and Beijing barely can be seen in Nunavut schools and homes where they are needed most. To solve this problem, NITV brings IsumaTV’s hundreds of hours of Inuktitut content to remote Inuit communities with not enough bandwidth to use IsumaTV on their own. NITV installs Community Media Stations (CMS) in a school, library or other central location in participating Inuit communities. Each CMS connects hi-speed internet to a local server for upload and download of IsumaTV.
