Eskimo Hunters

Edit

Summaries

  • Eskimos in small villages on the Arctic shores live by fishing and hunting; animal products are used for food, clothing, and shelters; in a trading post, furs and skins are exchanged for imported manufactured commodities.
  • Latest in the publicized series of worthwhile, information shorts produced by Louis DeRochemont. It depicts an Eskimo equivalent of the Jones family at work and play in a primitive Alaskan settlement. Father and his young son participate in some remarkable hunting escapades and close-ups of the family dinner table, while not exactly mouth-watering, are interesting, as are scenes at the trading post and a community song-and-dance social. It features fine photography and the narration is handled in direct, simple language that adults will enjoy and children will understand.—Anonymous
