Diet of Souls completes a film trilogy that is both a personal quest and an exploration of three aspects of the Inuit mind. After Songs in Stone, which looked at the Inuk as Artist, and Nuliajuk, Mother of the Sea Beasts, which looked at the Inuk as Storyteller, Diet of Souls explores the Inuk as Hunter. This is a fitting conclusion to the trilogy, for what journey of discovery into the Inuit world would be complete without seeking to comprehend the hunter's complex relationship with the animal? The Inuit shaman Ivaluardjuk warned that only by living one's life in a manner acceptable to the spirits of the animals, and the deities who protect them, is it possible to survive - physically and spiritually. Does that ancient wisdom guide modern Inuit? Can it help us all?
