Show detail Hide detail

Documentary video recording various winter activities of Allan Matoush and members of his family, Cree Indians from Mistassini, Quebec. Beginning sequences show the Matoush family catching several lake fish using nets suspended under the lake ice (tapes 1 & 2). Tapes 5 - 8 record the skinning of rabbits and the preparation of dinner consisting of the rabbit meat smoked over coals. Outdoor activities show the men gathering firewood from the surrounding woods with skidoos, making a skidoo sled and carving a wooden toboggan with a "crooked knife" (tapes 9-12). The indoor activities include sequences on washing and stretching caribou hides, butchering a beaver (tapes 13 & 14; 19 & 20), smoke tanning a caribou hide (tape 23), making bone tools for scraping hides (tapes 25 & 26) and cleaning hides (tapes 31 & 32). Throughout the filming are shots of children playing with carved wooden toys, snowshoeing in the woods on "beavertail" snowshoes, and panoramic shots of the camp and surrounding area.
