THE LIVING STONE

Description: Oscar® Nominee, Best Documentary (Short Subject), 1958 This documentary shows the inspiration behind Inuit sculpture. The Inuit approach to the work is to release the image the artist sees imprisoned in the rough stone. The film centres on an old legend about the carving of the image of a sea spirit to bring food to a hungry camp.
