In 1922, he released the result of his efforts: NANOOK OF THE NORTH, a 69-minute look into the life of one great Eskimo hunter and his family as they faced life and death on the ice floes bordering eastern side of Hudson Bay.

With a landmass larger than the state of Texas, and a population of only slightly more than 25,000, Nunavut is a land of sweeping, open vistas and warm smiles.

    The overall goal of Arctic Circle is to stimulate among viewers a greater interest in the peoples and environment of the Arctic and Subarctic region. As stated on the Welcome page, this 'electronic circle' has three interrelated themes: natural resources; history and culture; social equity and environmental justice. In addressing these issues, the presentations utilize a range of textual and photographic materials, and in the near future, sound and short video recordings.
