Although he\u2019s warned to expect boredom and bitter cold, Anders, a young Danish primary school teacher, accepts a post in Tiniteqiilaq, a remote village of 80 inhabitants in Greenland. Arriving with certain preconceptions\u2014the \u201cDanish look\u201d as one villager calls it\u2014Anders contends with cultural differences and an unruly classroom, to say nothing of the snow. Wondering what it takes to be accepted in this \u201chellhole,\u201d he\u2019s advised to try learning the language and local ways\u2014hunting, sledding, fishing. How hard can it be, he figures, to ride a sled?<\/p>\n

French filmmaker Samuel Collardey often explores the blurry terrain between fiction and documentary. Meticulously constructed, A Polar Year<\/i> blends purely documentary sequences with scripted moments involving the villagers. But these distinctions become academic as you give yourself over to cinema that\u2019s thoroughly absorbing and visually breathtaking. Collardey spent months in the village before learning of Anders\u2019s assignment and starting to film. His \u201creverse assimilation\u201d story reflects delightfully on Eurocentrism as well as on Tiniteqiilaq\u2019s indigenous people, changing seasons, and rhythms of life and death.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/form>\n
