Qallunaat! why white people are funny

Martin, Kent. (Added Author). Nungak, Zebedee. (Added Author). Sandiford, Mark. (Added Author). National Film Board of Canada (Added Author). Beachwalker Films. (Added Author).

Summary: "A fresh and long overdue 'study' of white people from the Inuit point of view. Not surprisingly, these 'Qallunologists' find the ways of white culture a bit peculiar and often riotously funny. [The researchers] consider their odd dating habits, their lame attempts at Arctic exploration, their overbearing bureaucrats and curious obsession with owning property"--Container.
