The title, "Heart of Light" is what this film is all about. The deep darkness of a lost soul is cleansed by the shining purity of winter's light. This is a film about revisiting the past in order to overcome its demons. It is a film about recovering a lost time and a lost culture. It is a film in a language that you are unlikely to hear often, if ever again...the language of native Greenlanders. It is a film with images of a harsh but beautiful landscape. With its shining crystal ice images, it is indeed a gem of a film.
