The Last Igloo (2019)
Slow and nice -but from where in Greenland does this come????
Overall a fine documentary. I just wish BBC here as in many other documentaries would be more willing to let us know from where these documentaries are made. Greenland is a vast place. West and East are very different. The sleds, for instance are different, the amount of dogs used to pull are different numbers....
Please, let us know from which destinations you show.!!!! It makes sense to let us know the location.
As for you out there who dislike sealkilling, you have not fully comprehended, that even today - 2022 - it might be a way of surviving.
Traditional food, even today is primarily marinefood - study and you will learn about that.
The reason for overweight and lifestyle healthproblems to-day is mainly unhealthy pre-fabricated food from western kitchens - not native food from the sea - as seals for instance. All is eaten in a seal, and goes a long way.
As for the igloos, it must be a romantic idea from the producers, that igloos have a place in the culture to-day. I have never seen one around.
The film is certainly slow, nice and beautiful, because the place is so beautiful.
The film The Last Hunter shows some af the same environment and tells the story of a dying profession : hunting.
This film does some of the same and it deserves attention.
My guess about this film location is Tasiilaq/Ammassalik. I lived there !
