Fish Traps (1993): Cast

Set in the late 1930s near Igloolik, three families construct a saputi, a traditional fish trap, to catch the upriver migration before winter. As daylight wanes, the young members drift into daydreams while the community waits for the catch. Yet the unpredictable Arctic nature tests their hopes, in this third Isuma recreated fiction from 1993.
