The Meeting

61 minutes

Arsaniq travels from Montreal to Igloolik where she is picked up by Monica. Arsaniq and Monica watch a film by Bernnard Saladin to accurately design Monica’s tattoos. The film made in 1975 interviews the first Atuat, Monica’s great-great-great grandmother. Susan brings archival photos and they all look at the poke tattoos, discussing the names for each facial tattoo.
