Abstract 520    $a"One of the most influential documentaries ever made, and hailed as a masterpiece on its release in 1922, this portrayal of Eskimo culture follows the lives of Nanook and his family in their daily battle for survival in the frozen wastes of northern Canada. Flaherty suceeds in capturing the spirit of the Inuit people in scenes of matchless cinematic beauty." [Publishers statement]
