VISION MAN

Heart-warming, award-winning portrait of Utuniarsuak Avike, an 87-year-old Inuit hunter who has spent most of his life walking on thin ice.

VISION MAN

Now he is restricted to his prefabricated cabin and can no longer pursue polar bears or walrus the way he used to do.

But Utuniarsuak is not a bitter man. He has a wicked sense of humour and a very personal view of life and nature. An hour in Utuniarsuak’s company is truly an uplifting experience.
