In 50 years, the Inuit have gone from the igloo to the internet. Today the key to the self-determination and direction of the Inuit societies of Nunavik and Nunavut is in their own hands. Evie Mark, Tunu Napartuk, Lena and Qajaaq Ellsworth, the Inuit co-directors of the documentary film, ULLUMI, take a clear and critical look at the major challenges facing their future, their children's future and their society. The importance of the Inuktitut language and education, of economic development, of leadership and the reconciliation between tradition and modernity are at the heart of their preoccupations.
