	Igloolik, Nunavut - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Igloolik, sometimes spelled Iglulik, is a community in Nunavut, northern Canada.
		Because it is on a small island in Foxe Basin that is very close to the Melville Peninsula (and to a lesser degree, Baffin Island), it is often mistaken to be on the peninsula.
		An ancient legend from the Igloolik area was adapted into the award-winning Canadian film Atanarjuat in 2001.

		One of the founders of Igloolik Isuma Productions Inc., Kunuk and his colleagues established their company in order to preserve Inuit culture and language, educate people on Inuit history, and stimulate the economy of the Igloolik/Nunavut regions of Arctic Canada, which have been long-burdened by both high unemployment and suicide rates.
		Igloolik Isuma has been successful since its inception, founding a television centre, a dramatic workshop, and producing local television programming, short films, and the 1994 Canadian miniseries Nunavut.
		The first film ever scripted and shot entirely in the Aboriginal Inuktitut language, it was one of the most discussed art-house releases of 2002, and for good reason — a mythic story from another era, it also conveys a timeless drama that reinforces the universality of our shared human condition.
