Norman Cohn (b. 1946, New York) is
secretary-treasurer and co-founder of Igloolik Isuma’s collective.
Living since 1985 both in Igloolik and Montreal, Cohn developed with
Kunuk, elder Pauloosie Qulitalik and the late Paul Apak, Isuma’s
signature style of ‘re-lived' cultural drama, combining the
authenticity of modern video with the ancient art of Inuit storytelling.
Three partners of Igloolik Isuma Productions interview themselves about the meaning of their work together. Shot sometime in the early 1990's, date unknown.
Why We Do This? Zach Kunuk, Qulitalik, Norman Cohn, 42:09, Inuktitut and English. Early 1990s.
