Record information – Details Fonds/collection:BANFF TELEVISION FESTIVALAccession:1982-0291Media:VideoPart:1 of 1Production date:1982Production company:Cinetel Film Productions Ltd.Production credit:director, Peter Haynes; Harold TichenorDescription:Jacob Archie, son of Head Point Archie Erogaktoak, the Great Hunter, was born in a tent at King Point as the family was travelling from Alaska to Aklavik. Today, Jacob is a hunter and the best trapper in the Mackenzie Delta region. It is a very hard living, continually frustrated by the vicissitudes of the game and the weather, and by the ever-changing market for furs. But it is an honourable life, which has its roots in the age-old way of the Eskimo. Jacob says, "Old ways, new ways, makes no difference - always the animals are the same". Jacob and his wife, Elizabeth, are some of the last Inuit prepared to face the vast, unyielding land and the predatory weather to preserve tradition of which Inupiatin may be a final document. <54mn 52s>Language:EnglishNotes:Detailed holdings information: -
