Ikíngut is a movie that was released in 2000.
The word means "Friend" in the native language [1] and it is also a name given to children. [2]
The film tells an extraordinary story of friendship. In the 19th century, a small Eskimo boy living in Greenland reaches a remote village in Iceland on a broken iceberg. He meets a young boy named Buas, who is from a family in the village, and, by chance, saves him from the falling avalanche. The two kids become friends. People of the village, however, are superstitious, and believe that the awkward-looking Ikingut (named after the first word he uses) is an evil spirit. [3] Therefore, Buas has to fight for his friend against those who want him to be imprisoned or even killed. [4] [5] [6]
