Rostova, N. N. ‘Nanuk from the North’: Being as an Obviousness of Meaning

Abstract: Review: the article contains a philosophical and anthropological analysis of a documentary about the Eskimo’s life ‘Nanuk from the North’. According to the author, the main hero has a gift to become part of the nature and move with the natural powers, still remaining human. That movement is marked with the encounter of the material things and their meanings, when things are moved by the meanings and the meanings are moved by the material things
