Why ptarmigan have red eyes, a little pouch to store their food, and legs like drumsticks.

For thousands of years they guided us through this world, teaching us invaluable lessons about life and death. They strengthened our resolve and reinforced our connection to this land, to each other, and to the animals we share it with. They enriched our souls, empowered our imaginations, and defined who we are as a people. These are the stories of our elders.

BERRY PICKING
While making breakfast Kalla notices they are almost out of jam, so Ukaliq and Kalla decide to go berry picking for crowberries. Ukaliq learns that even though the berries are very tasty, if he eats as much as he picks, he won’t have any berries to make into jam.

 MAKING PITTI
Ukaliq and Kalla catch a lot of fish. Enough fish to make all sorts of delicious things, and making pitti (dried fish) is one of their favourites! Kalla tells everyone a story about how he learned how to make pitti.

Ukaliq and Kalla are spending the weekend at their tent. Kalla wakes up early and decides to go for a walk and pick heather. The two make tea and bannock.

 ICE BREAKUP
Summer arrives in the arctic. Ukaliq is excited to use his snow machine one last time before the sea ice breaks apart. But Kalla informs Ukaliq that the ice has already broken up so he shouldn’t go snowmobiling. Kalla reminds Ukaliq of all the fun things there are to do during summertime.

EGG PICKING
Ukaliq and Kalla, two very different friends, decide to go egg picking that day. Kalla has been many times before so gives Ukaliq important advice about leaving some eggs to take care of the birds. But it turns out Ukaliq does not know the difference between a duck and a goose and is in for quite a surprise.

In Qimuksik (Dog Team) one family travels in the immense and beautiful arctic during spring. Inuaraq teaches his young son how to survive in the old way: driving the dogs, building the igloo, catching seals on the open water, running down caribou to feed the family.    

Inuaraq's family finally arrives at Avaja to a warm welcome. Yet, many changes have taken place. On the hill above the tents, they now find a wooden church and a priest. Sharing the fresh caribou feast, telling stories, Inuit are interrupted by the bell ringing. Inside the church the sermon is clear: Paul 4:22, 'Turn away from your old way of life.'

Igloolik, Fall 1945. Grandmother remembers the old way. In autumn 1945, five families build a stone house to prepare for the coming winter.
