Excerpt: Atanarjuat (Inuktitut syllabics: (fonts required)) (also known as Atanarjuat: The Fast Runner) is a 2001 Canadian film directed by Zacharias Kunuk. It was the first feature film ever to be written, directed and acted entirely in Inuktitut. Set in the ancient past, the film retells an Inuit legend passed down through centuries of oral tradition. Produced by Kunuk's production company, Isuma Igloolik Productions, the film was Canada's top-grossing release of 2002, outperforming the mainstream comedy Men With Brooms.

Qulitalik tells his sister, "Tulimaq is the one they'll go after now." It seems that Qulitalik is leaving to escape a threat, and the hope is that one day he will return to help. As Panikpak watches him leave, we hear a voice-over from a woman (which we will recognise later as the voice of Panikpak when she is older): "We never knew what he was or why it happened. Evil came to us like Death. It just happened and we had to live with it." Flash back to the original scene in the stone house. The visitor and the camp leader Kumaglak are in a "friendly" spiritual duel involving binding in leather thongs. But Panikpak is startled when the st
