Geela Kumarluk, Inuk social worker and Inukjuak native opens up a line of dialogue with members of her community about the trauma experienced by her people at the hands of the Canadian government and, most importantly, about how to heal from it. The formal and informal interviews with the director and with Geela present a simultaneously intimate and outward-looking perspective of the village and the Inuit. As community members open up, winter morphs into spring, and the village booms with warmer weather activity, just as they prepare for a celebration of Inuit traditions that comes exactly one hundred years after the release of Flaherty’s film about Inuit in the region; “Nanoq of the North”.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
