bevquestad49 This is a film about loss and the road to recovery in a frozen land where the harsh environment serves as a keen metaphor to life's challenges. It is also about the power of human relationships – and how, like the icy hand of the frozen north, they can be more deadly than the cruelest cold.Anderson: It also is a universal story of troubled people in dysfunctional broken families. It is a story of deep pain along with a hope for healing. At the same time "Inuk" also gives us dazzling scenery with beautiful snow landscapes, awesome dog sled scenes and views of the far north cities of Greenland. I loved that. Questad: The film starts out with sparse, poetic language that makes its story sound like a legend. "Outsiders are always surprised by the number of words we use for ice. But for us Inuit, ice is more than a word, it's our soul!"We loved this movie.
Cameron McAllister Considering Greenland's first feature film production was 2009's "Nummioq," I was likely not alone when I confessed to never having seen a Greenlandic movie before. (I must admit that I had to look up whether the correct demonym was 'Greenlandish' or 'Greenlandic.') That changed recently after watching "Inuk." Director Mike Magidson created an energetic look at both a boy and a culture in modern Greenland as they each undergo dynamic changes.I was reminded a little of Danny Boyle's Oscar champ "Slumdog Millionaire," thanks to the frantic soundtrack and the youthful energy provided by a young cast of non-professional actors. While the story is neither as complex nor as contrived as Boyle's film, it maintains a simplistic charm which allows you to grow a bit closer to the both of the film's leads, Gaba Peterson (Inuk) and Ole Jørgen Hammeken (Ikuma).Greenland's icy landscape is both chilling and mesmerizing. I cannot begin to imagine how difficult filming must have been for any crew members that were not from the area. Nonetheless, the film is shot and edited exceptionally; a fact that enough people agreed on to award it Best Narrative Feature, Best Director and Best Editing at the 2011 Savannah Film Festival. I was fortunate enough to see both Magidson and Hammeken say a few words about the film after it screened.4 out of 5 stars.
brian-morgan-680-273403 I saw this movie at the Savannah Film Festival in Georgia. The director was there to talk briefly about this film. He mentioned that the hardest part of this film was using non actors who were actually from the locations used in the film. This being said the fact that this movie uses real people as their actors is astonishing to me. I enjoyed the story of this young boy having to follow in his fathers shoes. It's a fun movie with a simple story line and a fun adventure that takes you to an element that isn't seen very often in movies in the north part of Green Land. Cinematography was decent a few things that bugged me such as the night scenes weren't lit very well (if at all) and some out of focus shots here and there. But for being an independent feature I can forgive those things.
Jack I saw this film almost by accident at the Ashland Independent Film Festival, and I was simply blown away. Aside from the fact that it is set against the stunning landscapes of Greenland, a land that few of us know, the story and characters are all deeper than any I've seen in a long time. I was even more blown away when I learned that the two leading actors, Gaba Petersen and Ole Jorgen Hammeken, are both non-professionals. Their performances are worth that of any big star I've seen over the years. The story is a crafty blend of social and cultural struggle with everything an authentic adventure film has to offer. However it doesn't throw in all of the "look at my brilliant screen writing" plot turns that usually just make me yawn. No, this film is filled with heart and soul. I will definitely be recommending it to everyone I know. A must see!
