- A pilot and his passenger struggle for survival after crashing in the Arctic tundra.
- In the early 1960s the Canadian government conducted an experiment in social engineering. Three young Inuit boys were separated from their families in the Arctic and were sent to Ottawa, the nation's capital, to live with white families and to be educated in white schools. The consequences the experiment would have on the boys, their identity and culture was brushed aside. The bureaucrats did not anticipate the outcome. The three grow up to be political activists and leaders - often at odds with the government that brought them south. They establish Indigenous rights in Canada and are instrumental in the creation of Nunavut, the world's largest self-governed Indigenous territory. But it all comes at a tremendous personal cost. Peter Ittinuar, Zebedee Nungak, and Eric Tagoona recount their stories, achievements and challenges in this film about an attempt at assimilation, empowerment, and the triumph of the human spirit.

- Imagine sixty kids staging a full-scale musical in six days. Witness the emotional highs, lows and in-betweens of more than 250 kids in five communities when Missoula Children's Theatre, via its signature little red truck, comes to town.
- Three generations of the Caribou Inuit family come together to tell the story of their journey as Canada's last nomads. From the independent life of hunting on the Keewatin tundra to taking the reins of the new territory of Nunavut on April 1, 1999, we see it all. The film is the result of a close collaboration between Ole Gjerstad, a southern Canadian, and Martin Kreelak, an Inuk. It's Martin's family that we follow, as the story is told through his own voice, through those of the Elders, and through those of the teens and young adults who were born in the settlements and form the first generation of those growing up with satellite TV and a permanent home.

- When the motorhome breaks down in Winnipeg, NHLer guest star Jordan Tootoo entices Mark and Calum to face-off in his home town of Rankin Inlet, Nunavut. In their first trek to the territories, the boys feast on the most ferocious rivalry this side of the rocky tundra: Mark and Team Cooked Food versus Calum, Jordan Tootoo, and Team Raw Food! As for the icing on the cake, the loser will do a lot more than wince in discomfort as they try to withstand this week's punishment, 'The Rankin Inlet High Kick!'.
