The Necessities of Life - Ce qu'il faut pour vivre (click here for short Variety review)
Just watched this movie on French TV. I wish I'd caught it from the start, but I was just channel surfing and got sucked in. Mostly in inuktituk with French subtitles, the other spoken language is French (but there's an English version of the movie which I assume is fully subtitled in English.)
Don't believe the trailer, that makes it seem like it's about: Racism! Clash of cultures! He cheats on his wife!!
It's really the man's relationship with a fellow Innu patient, an orphan boy, who helps him adjust to his new surroundings; and who he in turn teaches about his heritage. It's a gentle, sweet, not emotionally over-wrought film. I highly recommend it.
