    Learn about traditional Inuit culture from this fascinating series. This series documents cultural practices, skills, and values in Nunavut in northern Canada. Each episode focuses on a different topic, and does a good job of celebrating the skills and resourcefulness of the Inuit.
    The territory of the Inuit (also called Eskimo, Inupiaq, Yupik, and other regional names) cover the northern and western regions of Alaska, northern Canada, and Greenland. The Inuit continue to live in these areas and maintain many cultural traditions while also incorporating some modern technology into their culture as well. Inuit continue to have a deep respect and spiritual connection with the land and its resources.
    The Tuktu documentary series was produced by the National Film Board of Canada between 1966 and 1968.

      I feel so bad for the Inuit that's why I moved to Nunavut into a village when I first went there on the reservation I saw how truly disgusting the Canadian government treated these people the original owners of turtle Island yes the people are nice and yes they make good food when they have it but there's a sense of dread and guiltyness when I see the Inuit sad I feel like I'm responsible for this to any first naiton that is reading this from what ever tribe you are from I hope you forgive me as an intruder of your land I am sorry

    At the same time: the cutting from the "games" to hunting, fishing, building is a nice unspoken comment.

It is however, of the Netsilik Inuit of North Eastern Canada, but as mentioned, the Inuit and other natives across the northern part of North America would have lived very similar lifestyles. So it applies to Inuit in Alaska as well.

      They had berries, but there isn't evidence that they were traditionally fermented for alcohol, although I have seen wild blueberry liqueur in the Yupik eskimo region, which is delicious btw, but this isn't a traditional food. Some do, however, continue to ferment meat as a way to preserve it. Fish heads and seal flippers (and other things in different places) are fermented, but it doesn't produce alcohol in the process since meat doesn't have sugar.
