The life of the Inuit is a constant struggle for existence against the harshness of the Arctic. We watch the unending labours on which the Inuit's survival depends--spearing fish, making lamp fuel, manufacturing clothing and kayaks, hunting powerful quarry like the polar bear, the white whale, and the walrus.
