Episode of Series “The Stories of Tuktu”.
When the caribou cross the small lakes to reach new grazing ground, the Inuit hunt the animals from their kayaks. Tuktu’s father has bad luck with his hunting and a caribou escapes his spear. But we see him bringing one home, and the film ends with an outdoor fire and everyone enjoying a feast.
