Details

Igloolik, Nunavut, 2000 BCE. Teenage lovers Kaujak and Sapa were promised to each other at birth. After the sudden death of Kaujak’s father, her mother marries a man from another camp, tearing the two apart. Aggressive suitors backed by an evil shaman vie to win Kaujak’s hand, while Kaujak resists, holding on to hope that Sapa will one day make things right.
