Why White People are F unny\, Mark Sandiford  (2006)  NFB 52 min\n\nThis documentary is a tongue- in-cheek investigation into the ways Inuit people have been treated as “ex otic” documentary subjects by turning the lens onto the strange behaviours of Qallunaat (the Inuit word for white people). The term refers less to s kin colour than to a certain state of mind. The doc explores how the Qallu naat greet each other with inane salutations\, repress natural bodily func tions\, complain about being cold\, and want to dominate the world.\n\nThe film is a collaboration between filmmaker Mark Sandiford and Inuit writer and satirist Zebedee Nungak\, Qallunaat! brings the documentary form to a n unexpected place in which oppression\, history\, and comedy collide.\n\n This film is part of the NFB series: UNIKKAUSIVUT - SHARING OUR STORIES\n \n\n91's Faculty of Education and The P. Lantz Initiative for Excellen ce in Education and the Arts present the 2018 season of the Weekly Indigen ous Film Series\, facilitated by Lori Beavis and supported by 91's Dep artment of Integrated Studies in Education and the Institute for Human Dev elopment and Well-Being (IHDW).\n DTSTART:20180111T210000Z DTEND:20180111T230000Z SUMMARY:[Indigenous Film Series] Qallunaat!
