Truth and Fiction in Documentary Film Documentary film style has been used in films dating back to the pre 1900's. It was later a term that was used by John Grierson in his review of Robert Flaherty's film Moana in 1926. Documentary films are often regarded as films that display reality and tell stories about real facts and interview real people. Although this does not mean that fiction does not exist in documentary films. Films such as Nanook of the North can tell a story that is perceived to be
seen before that he was willing to distort the reality of a foreign people. When the film was being made the Inuit people were depicted to follow the stereotype of being “a people without technology, without a culture, lacking intelligence, living in igloos, and at best a sort of simplistic ‘native boy’ type of subhuman arctic being” (Rony 99), as described by the writer Joseph E. Senungetuk. However, in reality these people were civilized and had a culture that was different than what was depicted in
114). Likewise, it should be noted that some of the locations in the film were also staged. For instance, the igloo where Nanook and his family slept was a constructed set. That is, although the building of the igloo is one of the most celebrated scenes in the film, it should be noted it was staged. This is because the scenes inside the igloo were shot in a constructed three-walled igloo, which allowed room for Flaherty's camera and effective lighting to
Americans. Over this time, Inuit culture mainated a genuineness and uniformity unique to most ancient cultures. Continuing with the Inuit’s historic homes, Inuit communities locate in the Tundra. Previously, Inuit communities lived in igloos during the winter. The igloos, shelters made from snow, were used as homes because of the scarce variety of resources in the area. During the melting of the snow in the summer, Inuit made huts similar to tents using animal skins outstretched over the area of a frame
Snowflakes cascaded down the roof of little Alex’s bedroom window. Inside the blue painted room with dinosaurs stenciled on the wall, the little boy tossed and turned in his race car bed. Images danced in his mind of snow topped mountains and candy cane fields as the North Pole surely became real. In the distance, bells chimed and carols echoed through the gingerbread villages.

In Funeral Rites, Heaney portrays various attitudes towards death, which are amplified in North as a collection, through its distinct, tri-partite structure. In the first section, Heaney concentrates on his admiration of the ceremony he experienced attending funerals in the past.The transition from past tense to present is confirmed by the strong adverb ‘Now’, and lines 33-39 focus on The Troubles plaguing Northern Ireland since the 1960s.

Recognizing this has caused me to question the knowledge that has been given to me about the First Nations culture. This is because when I was younger, I was always taught that First Nations people only lived in igloos and had long braided hair.
