I'm Irish/Danish and an old old soul. I would be considered pagan. My connection with Raven is strong. I appreciate your efforts & sharing of this story. I have come to find that Alute as well is part of my make and story. Everything and every being is memories. We come from memories. And we all return to memories.🔥
Whenever it came on NWT or CBC North before APTN, my eyes were glued to the TV, and when I saw it in school, every kid was excited to see it, along with the owl and the lemming.
Christian Tagoona-Tapatai Your grandma has a beautiful voice. I am not Inuit, but her singings somehow...made me cry? Idk, I feel very touched. There is something so innocent, optimistic, and welcoming about her voice. I am certain that she must be a wonderful woman 🌹 You are lucky to have a wonderful woman like her.
understanding both in English and inuktittut. watched it growing up andstill can't get tired of it. tulugak (raven) and okpik (owl) myth or legend, it seems that way. some legends and myths still gets my mind wandering all over the place. :) thanks for sharing
translate is ongoing throughout most of the video. owl and raven used to be good friends. says the interpeter. from being too happy the raven recieved the kamiks from the owl. who started moving around looking at his new kamiks, owl started getting mad, so it threw the black liquid unto the raven. just a myth, but looks legit. lol
Curious, Native Taiwanese has a similar tale. The Jaguar and the Black bear (who weren't black at the time) agreed to paint each other, to make themselves look more beautiful. Bear painted Jaguar with flowery dots so he shined like summer, but when cunning Jaguar was asked to return the favor he didn't want Bear to look as good, so he covered Bear with dark mud until he's entirely black, which Bear did not take well. To this day, Bear (now black) continues to chase after Jaguar for his misdeed.
Wow, that must have taken ages to produce. I once did a 2 or 3 minute stop-motion film to show my kids how film works, and that took me several days. I'm very impressed. And the singing is wonderful too. Great little video!
A beautifully talented work, but also grounded and human. Children need this calming influence, not the ridiculous onslaught of pointless noise and graphics they are fed nowadays. The sledge and dogs at 01:32 is incredible. The National Film Board of Canada should be justly proud.
That's fascinating! I've never heard Inuit language before, and if I'd been asked to identify it, I'd probably have guessed some dialect of French due to the similar intonations. It's a charming story, by the way, and a lovely animation.
Inuit didn't have toys and doll's back then, so Inuit played with what they can, Bones. That is what was a pass time for kids and mothers, that's what they played with, so they are telling about the story of the Owl and the Raven, Owl loved her new painting , she repaid the Raven with kammiks, the Raven was so Happy for its new Kammiks, he couldn't stay still when the Owl was painting him, the owl was so frustrated because the Raven couldn't stay still, so the Owl dumped all Black paint all over the Raven, that is why the Raven is still Black to this day. That is the Moral of the story. They have Never gotten along ever since. Ravens are so stubborn too!
It's basicly the same how children in southern lands "build" houses and barns etc. in the dirt with sticks (the floor plan of buildings) and use small rocks and pine cones etc. as "animals" and other objects in their imaginative "house/farm/factory management" plays. Up where inuits live, there are not many trees, so small rocks and caribou/seal bones were items inuit children used to create similar imaginative scenarios as southern children build with twigs, rocks and tree cones. Owl builds a "floor plan" of an igloo in the story and then hauls two "seals" (actually, seal bones) on a "sled" made from bones to the "igloo". The small finger bones of a seal are "sled dogs" in that scenario

@2hornz49 That girl thats singing is my mother's mother, my grandma
Would you mind sharing her name? Does she sing other native songs?
Oh, sorry, I see her name now is jeela alilkatuktuk?
What is the name of the song that she sings in this? I love it and wish I could find more about it.

I shared this with my class and some of the students asked to listen to the song, is there a way to find this and other songs by your grandmother?
this short played a huge part in my childhood, and know it just pulls my hearts string to hear this again!

Where'd you learn Inuktittuk?
Can you translate the song?

Raven painted Owl's chest and wing spots so well that she gave Raven new kamiqs as a gift.

Awh remember this from my grade 2 class as a kid. Nice to see it again.
Very good and interesting legend! Thank you very much!
I freakin love teh birds voice! (the beaked one) im a Greenland native, so the language is kinda How danish is for a Norwegian xD
I remember growing up with this on tv and learning the song.
Esther Wolki what’s the name of the song
I still remember this in my child hood times
I wish i could learn inuit. I love this short film. It was so well made.❤
Inuit means “people”. The word your looking for is Inuktitut for the east part of Nunavut or Inuinnaqtun in the west part
This is the most adorable thing ever
I LOVE NFB shorts! I remember watching this in elementary school, and we'd all sing, "Ah ya YAAA ya!..." along with it.
I haven't seen this since I was a little kid.
Still remember the song like I heard it yesterday.
I long have forgotten my mother tongue. But I appreciate these videos nonetheless. I try and listen to the dialogs and understand so little.
That was very nice!
Greetings from Germany.
Stay strong and tell your stories on!
I love this legend...thank you!
I remember when I watched this in Elementary in St Matthew and finally found the video.
this is beautiful.
Cheeky raven, serious owl ;)
omg, I love this cartoon. I use to watch this as a kid. ^^
That's fascinating! I've never heard Inuit language before, and if I'd been asked to identify it, I'd probably have guessed some dialect of French due to the similar intonations.
It's a charming story, by the way, and a lovely animation.
it strikes me as a story about losing a friendship
That was cool, Thanks for sharing.
the language is indeed inuqtituuq ! Gotta love it, Eskinuit ! "Same" here Long Live "circumpolar" cultures...
Thank you for sharing! Beautifully told

@2hornz49 Great. Inuit have their unique with their stories and music. They're Canadians, too.
And now I could share this with my son Tulugaq so he may know how us ravens became black
I'm actually an Inuit I live in cape dorset but I am in montreal

💘
poor raven.
crystal qappik Lmao the owl has enough of his lack of cooperation 😂
He can still keep those nice boots. The raven looks pretty in sleek ebony black though.
@2hornz49 What do you mean?
Similar legend, or myth, appears in Greenland. Asannittumik ilassivassi.
Can anyone tell me something about that song? I want to know the lyrics :)

Aijaja
Rachel Ann nick my good friend with god amen love u 💕
What is the song
Raven and the owl, the beginning of their friendship and last
@meloduple Same
I know who the Raven is.
What is the bone game?
It's basicly the same how children in southern lands "build" houses and barns etc. in the dirt with sticks (the floor plan of buildings) and use small rocks and pine cones etc. as "animals" and other objects in their imaginative "house/farm/factory management" plays.

The small finger bones of a seal are "sled dogs" in that scenario
Remember My lakota teacher showing me this in 5th grade almost 5 years ago I think this is Navajo
The language (aside english) in the video is inuktitut. The language of indigenous people of Arctic Canada (also called "eskimos")
read the sub titels
Raven o deus da trapaça e criador
Is this Kwakiutl
Captions make NO sense.
Sorry i cant hear the english text.......... Can someone fix this or write it down? I really want to hear this. Thanks
Omni Modus trust me you dont
