The Last Igloo tells the story of a typical day in the life of an Inuit hunter in Greenland, as he travels across the stunning arctic landscape with his dog sled, fishes through the sea ice, and finally builds an igloo. While Inuit now live in permanent settlements, igloos are symbolic of a whole way of life that may be lost forever as the snow and ice disappear.

With an original score from acclaimed Icelandic composer Biggi Hilmars, this is an extraordinary and poetic sensory immersion in the arctic landscape.
