The Shaman by Luc Perez was shown at the Greenland Eyes international film festival here in Oslo, Norway on 13th December. Watch it here: 11 minute animated acrylic on paper with computer compositing. In order to survive harsh nature, Utaaq as a young Inuit hunter must become a summoner of spirits, a Shaman. The story starts with Utaaq, now an Inuit elder, waiting at an urban bus stop in downtown Copenhagen, the capital city of Denmark. When Utaaq spots a bird from his native Greenland flying above his head, this rare visitor to those climates reminds Utaaq of his youth. In memory flashbacks, old Utaaqs journey from young hunter to Shaman is told. vimeo/35434227
