Original – Nanook of the North (1922), a American silent documentary film by Robert J. Flaherty. In the tradition of what would later be called salvage ethnography, Flaherty captured the struggles of the Inuk man named Nanook and his family in the Canadian Arctic.
Reason
An important documentary that was selected as one of the first 25 films inducted in the National Film Registry, this is yet another film that is worth watching for its achievements.
