Ougmigmag or The Fickle Art of Documentary Filmmaking

Overview

From the bottom of the Baie aux Feuilles, itself in the hollow of Ungava bay, at the summer solstice, a filmmaker is on the lookout. His camera scans the tundra, looking for a herd of muskox stubbornly refusing to be targeted - even by a documentary. A film which illustrates the thoughts of a humanist who is insatiably curious.
