Twice Colonized

This movie is about aaju Peter, from aaju Peters perspective and the directory Who share the same traits of narcissism in different degrees.

What is branded as a movie on the horrible colonization on the beautiful inuit People, has nothing to do with anything else than the main character aaju Peter, and the directory adoring her in her own words.. What is tanken from this movie is an insight in how a wounded Child with a victim mindset uses colonization and mistreatment of indiginous People as a new way to stay in the wounded victim mentality, keep attention solely on her and simultainously point fingers. After seing the movies the audience stands left with No more knowledge or understand ING about inuit culture than when they started, and when i raised this to the directory she tried to interlectually proclaim that it was for the Heart and not the head, and if i didnt Like it many other People do, which is basically saying "if you dont Like the movies you Are wrong!". Honestly this movie is mostly just to confirm vulnerable narcissism. And with All the injustice and deep People in the world, i suggest to see something worth you while. We are All humans on this earth, we are equal and we have infinite potential, and some identify with different cultures and countries and that is only to be respected, and true history taught. Dont fall for narcissist and see a real movies conveying real problems on the same topic.

Saw this at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival

"Twice Colonized" is a documentary about renowned Inuit lawyer Aaju Peter who has led a lifelong fight for the rights of her people. When her youngest son unexpectedly passes away, Aaju embarks on a personal journey to bring her colonizers in both Canada and Denmark to justice. For the most part, this documentary was decent and it's a good exploration study of Aaju Peter.

The documentary focuses on her life experiences, motivations, and what kind of person she is and the film does a pretty good job on exploring these concepts. The soundtrack choices were well done and the beautiful camerawork helps to show the landscapes of Greenland and Denmark at the same time.

The problems rely on uneven pacing and generic formula on documentary storytelling. Overall, a good once watch.

Rating: B-

The story of aaju peter, who has been fighting for the rights and independence of her inuit people for many years. When her son passes, it becomes even more of a personal journey. Because the inuits were still allowed to hunt seals, there were large protests. And credit to aaju for attending the protest summit in denmark. Trying to educate the public, she explains that this is the only economy and food source available where they live. Aaju is very angry, and cusses freely. It's sometimes hard to watch. They didn't interview the protesters. They didn't interview the ex boyfriend, who she fights with on the cell phone. They don't interview anyone who relocated the inuit children to larger cities to further their education. They didn't interview any of the lawyers they were fighting against. We only hear aaju's side of everything. At sixty seven minutes, they DO have a discussion with someone who explains how and why greenland cultures were absorbed into denmark. And right near the end, she talks about missing indigenous women. What? That came out of left field. It's an interesting story, but not really a documentary. At fifty one minutes, peter summarizes the mission of the film: the problem with cultures being "being governed by a foreign country". It's okay. Written and directed by lin alluna and peter. It also didn't get found when i searched for the title in imdb. It's imdb title number tt20521138, if that helps to locate the film.

This documentary, which centers on the life of Ajo Peter, an Eskew woman and Inuit rights activist, advances Ajo's efforts to create a permanent indigenous association in the European Union, while dealing with her personal and family problems - especially the sudden death of her child. The documentary has a unified and focused narrative and moves forward with the character's present and present; There is no news of interviews with Ajust's friends and companions, and no flashbacks to his past. We get all the information during Ajo's travels, struggles and encounters.
