Linus Kasudluak was one of eight teenagers from Inukjuak who documented their final year of high school in Inuuvunga: I Am Inuk, I Am Alive, a participatory media initiative undertaken by the NFB in 2004. Mentored by professionals from Montreal’s EyeSteelFilm, the young participants/observers fashioned a coming-of-age video journal detailing daily life and addressing a broad range of issues confronting their community, including youth suicide and cultural upheaval. Also on the team: Bobby Echalook, Sarah Idlout, Laura Iqaluk, Willia Ningeok, Caroline Ningiuk, Dora Ohaituk and Rita-Lucy Ohaituk.
