The first of two co-productions, by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) and the National Film Board of Canada (NFB), compiled from some of the most vivid footage ever filmed of the life of the Netsilik Inuit in the Pelly Bay region of the Canadian Arctic. Together, the two films provide insight and understanding of a culture now almost vanished, as they show the incredible resourcefulness with which the Netsilik PEOPLE OF THE SEAL have adapted to one of the world's harshest environments. PART 1, ESKIMO SUMMER shows how, during the extended hours of daylight, Inuit families prepare for the long dark winter ahead, hunting seal, birds and caribou, and fishing for Arctic char. <51mn 47s>
