That was an excellent one.

Excellent, a Must See

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

The most engrossing, intelligent movie I've seen in several years, not to mention gorgeously filmed. I only hope I can catch it on the big screen. Nothing is romanticized. It's THE Native movie I've been looking for, an authentic portrayal of how life must have been before the arrival of Europeans, not just the living conditions, but the world view and social relations as well. The love story is also one of the most beautiful yet believable I have ever seen on screen.

Beautiful pre contact story. I'd love to know more about the origins of the storyline, perhaps in mythology?, but it's a wonderful examination of cultures, identities, trust, relationships. Universal themes explored 'authentically' through the Innu and Inuit people of Labrador and Arctic Canada. The creators showed intense loyalty to detail. People wear hats when it's cold. Lovely dialogue between the Inuit friend that guided Maina's adaptation to the Arctic and herself. Beautiful camera-work.

This was a beautifully filmed and epic cinematic treat. What a commitment to the story of human loyalty to family and land. Check it out. Koodos to the entire 'family' who were responsible for this wonderful film. It is truly universal. The focus of this film is the daughter of the Chief and her stepbrother. Her real mother became shaman and healer - who left the tribe because her husband (the chief) took another woman. He took another woman as a nursemaid for his daughter because his wife (now shaman) could not produce enough milk to sustain his girl child. It is a tale of dreams, which includes animal protectors and future events. It involves the dream and spiritual realm in a lovely background of this real world within its stark and inspiring creation. It is an acceptance of life and death and the struggles in between.

This movie about pre-European Innu and Inuit has adventure, fighting and romance, and the cinematography is simply amazing. I had never even heard of it before today and saw it because the movie I did go to see was sold out.Call it serendipity. The acting is good; it's a tearjerker at points, feels good and ends with a couple of new beginnings, though not for sequel purposes.I was riveted. I took a look at the audience and they were in rapt attention.Highly recommended.
