Description

The EU ban on seal products has profoundly affected Canada's Inuit community. Despite the fact that the Inuit are exempt from the ban, they no longer have a market for sealskins; a by-product of their subsistence hunt.

This short documentary brings together commentary from Inuit hunters, community leaders and an emotional testimonial from Lisa Eetuk Ishulutak, who is affected by the ban because she is learning Fur Design at the Arctic College, and her main design material is sealskin.
