2008 AIFF Winner, Best Film

Set in 1840, Before Tomorrow begins as two isolated Inuit families reunite in celebration after many years of separation. The tribes have never encountered anyone outside of their families, although rumors circulate about the white explorers. When Ninioq, an old woman, her best friend, Kuutujuuk, and her grandson, Maniq, leave camp to dry fish on a remote island, a strange illness attacks the camp. After the death of Kuutujuuk, Ninioq and her grandson are left alone in the world and try to find the means and the will to survive alone in the remote Arctic tundra.
