The Last Igloo

Duration: 1 hour, 28 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC FourLatest broadcast: on BBC Four HD

Available for years

Documentary that follows a lone Inuit as he hunts, fishes and constructs an igloo. It tells the story of skills that are disappearing and of how climate change is affecting the lives of Greenland's indigenous people.

With its focus on the ingenious craft of igloo building before it becomes too late to record it, this is a meditative and poetic sensory immersion in a landscape of ice and snow, an elegy to a world that is melting away. Show less
