Get educated about showing Indigenous stuff before you make an idiot of yourself. This film is a piece of racist junk (yes, I've seen it).

I disagree with this films portrayal of Inuit as being violent drunks. This is a stereotype and is not right. Get the facts straight before you film and portray people as a whole!

This film is racist and a gross misrepresentation of Inuit and indigenous people the world over - it perpetuates the stereotypes of indigenous people. If you are screening this film you are also perpetuating this stereotype.

Please stop the perpetuation of the negative stereotypes of Inuit people... as we have enough issues to deal with and this does NOT help our struggle.

I am Inuit, and heartbroken over the thoughtlessness of this filmmaker and these festivals. They seem to be almost proud of how reckless and dangerous this film is. They mistake their own insensitivity as being avant-garde. But truly, it simply spouts the same tired old stereotypes we have been fighting for decades.

I think these issues can and should be addressed in events like this, however, they should be done with great care and thoughfulness and organized accordingly.

The Sponsors should be made aware of the material they are sponsoring.

Of The North promotes ignorance and negative stereotypes about the Inuit community and should not be screened.
