abstract:Nanook of the North (also known as Nanook of the North: A Story Of Life and Love In the Actual Arctic) is a 1922 silent documentary film by Robert J. Flaherty.
Since I share 98.8% of my genes with you, Saddam Hussein and NanookoftheNorth, the only plausible owner ofthe human genome is everyone, 6 billion phenotypes together.
Their inspiration owes less to traditional journalistic notions of objectivity and more to such pioneering documentarians as Robert Flaherty, who produced the 1920s classic NanookoftheNorth after spending years with his Eskimo subjects.
