The Journals of Knud Rasmussen

Zacharias Kunuk and Norman Cohn's THE JOURNALS OF KNUD RASMUSSEN is a damning vision of colonialism, neatly flipping the authorial voice intimated by the film's title to tell the story of the eponymous Danish explorer's 1922 Arctic journey from the perspective of Inuit that he encountered.

"Watch as an entire social order collapses without a sound — witness the seismic shift, hear the oblivious silence, and be moved" (Rick Groen, The Globe and Mail).
