How are the journeys of Qitdlarssuaq and Navarana intertwined? “More and more, life runs on gasoline and sugar” (36:00): discuss how this quote, and the grocery store clip that follows, highlight the tension between maintaining tradition and modernization. Vanishing Point is considered “cinéma vérité”: what are the qualities of this filmmaking technique and how is it an appropriate description for this film?
