Angry Inuk (2016)
9/10
The hypocrisy of the seal hunt ban and its severe impact on Inuit culture and livelihood
29 October 2018
Beautifully executed film that helped me come to grips with unintended and intended impacts of anti-seal hunt campaigns of 'southern' organizations that didn't appear to consult Inuit. Although as a Canadian, I was aware of the importance of the seal to the Inuit way of life, I had no idea of how central the seal hunt was to their economic survival. This film illustrates the hard uphill struggle of a small community of 30,000 people against animal rights organizations which continue to raise millions of dollars through pictures and dolls of cute harp seals, although that harvest was banned 30 years ago.
