Nunavut Animation Lab: Qalupalik

Join us while we read Call to Action #61 and view the 5-minute Indigenous-made film, Nunavut Animation Lab: Qalupalik.

Film synopsis: This animated short tells the story of Qalupalik, a part-human sea monster that lives deep in the Arctic Ocean and preys on children who do not listen to their parents or elders. That is the fate of Angutii, a young boy who refuses to help out in his family's camp, opting instead to play by the shoreline. But one day, Qalupalik seizes him and drags him away. Angutii's father, a great hunter, must then embark on a lengthy kayak journey to try and bring his son home.
