Kingulliit: The Next Generation is a 3-part documentary in Inuktitut.

Mixing never‐before seen historical footage with interviews of Inuit of all ages today, three episodes of Kingulliit, The Next Generation span the past, present and future of Inuit culture.

Kingulliit Productions was created to reflect radical changes in the film industry, building on the foundation of Igloolik Isuma Productions and evolving toward multi-platform digital new media. 

In association with Isuma Distribution International’s online distribution platform, IsumaTV, Kingulliit’s new productions are developed simultaneously for TV and the Internet answering the urgent need of more Inuktitut content in both platforms.

    Pingajugijat Kinguvaarijat: The Third Generation

    Part 2 of the Kingulliit documentary, by Zacharias Kunuk and Paul Aarulaaq Quassa.

    In the 1980’s and 90’s, as aging elders and Third Generation children become modern adults, southern radio and television introduced in 1982 increase the impact of foreign language and culture, and quickly alter the community dynamics of the settlement. Traditional respect for leadership by elders is undermined as Third Generation adults are prematurely empowered by new skills: the ability to speak, read and write English; to negotiate with white bosses and bureaucracies; to get jobs using new technology like trucks, heavy equipment, cash registers, typewriters, fax machines and computers.

    Maannalisat Kinguvaarijat: Today's Generation

    Part 3 of the Kingulliit documentary, by Zacharias Kunuk and Paul Aarulaaq Quassa.

    Focusing on the emerging youth of today, the ‘fourth’ generation never lived on the land, have little or no traditional knowledge, speak both Inuktitut and English poorly and have few positive models or prospects in either the traditional life of their ancestors or the world of the whites. Youth can be lost, unemployed, angry, with nothing to do.
