Cree Hunters of Mistassini
An NFB crew filmed a group of three families, Cree hunters from Mistassini. Since times predating agriculture, this First Nations people have gone to the bush of the James Bay and Ungava Bay area to hunt. We see the building of the winter camp, the hunting and the rhythms of Cree family life.

Make an anchor chart illustrating the relationships of the people in the community who provide for themselves and each other. What are the roles and responsibilities? Is this fair? In what ways do these relationships exist in other cultures, including our own? Examine how these lines of interdependence influence or reflect the values in a culture.
