More Information (Hunters Bay Radio is not responsible for external websites)
Celebrated Inuk director Zacharias Kunuk (Atanarjuat: The Fast Runner) returns a captivating, epic, historical drama about an arranged marriage, set 4,000 years ago.
Seamlessly blending the supernatural with verité realism, the film follows a boy, Sapa, and a girl, Kaujak, whose union in marriage is promised by their families from birth. With arresting imagery, his trademark humour, and a cast of mostly non-professional actors, Kunuk has again created a world that not only builds upon Inuit stories and legends to enthrall audiences but works to preserve these reimagined stories for generations to come. Born from oral traditions, and committed to authenticity, Uiksaringitara (Wrong Husband) is a unique feat of both cultural conservation and engrossing cinema. (English subtitles.)
