In this traditional Inuit story, a simple walk on the tundra becomes a life or death journey for a young man.

Extras
"The turngaq's wife stepped into the raging water and started drinking.
Gulping quickly, she drank and drank. Still not able to cross the river, she drank some more. Finally, so full she could hardly move, she drank even more. And when she couldn't drink another drop, she drank again."
