    I have been to Point Hope many times since 2001 until 2010. I worked there many times. I have seen the houses in this film and walked around them. They still are amazing. Life there has improved. But the weather is still very harsh. I really liked this film and enjoyed it greatly. The housing is modern now, but the village is isolated. In and out now is by small airlines that connect to the lower parts of Alaska and the other villages on the North Slope.

My neighbor is a speech pathologist who would take her college students to see what old people were REALLY like. She wouldn’t let them visit my ma because she was atypical. Some of her wilder stories turned out to be true. My parents left Nome after a plane crashed. The controllers were drinking beer with my mother and were negligent. They threatened to kill my father so they packed up and left. Glad they did.

      Unfortunately we've given them boatloads of free money so they don't have the desire to do the much harder work of fetching their own food. The seas off Alaska are loaded with sustainable populations of seal, whale, fish, and crab. The land has predictable reindeer and other meat animals.
      Instead, it's "here's free money, drink up!".
