A chilling true story of deception and survival set amidst the
Inuit communities of the Canadian Arctic. In 1922 the
Irish-American explorer Robert Flaherty made a film called 'Nanook
of the North' which captured the world's imagination. Soon
afterwards, he quit the Arctic for good, leaving behind his bastard
son, Joseph, to grow up Eskimo. Thirty years later a young,
inexperienced policeman, Ross Gibson, was asked by the Canadian
government to draw up a list of Inuit who were to be resettled in
the uninhabited polar Arctic and left to fend as best they could.
Joseph Flaherty and his family were on that list. They were told
they were going to an Arctic Eden of spring flowers and polar
bears. But it didn't turn out that way, and this, Joseph Flaherty's
story, tells how it did.
