| Synopsis
|
Two years ago, Margaret left her Arctic home for the outsiders'
school. Now she has returned and can barely contain her excitement as
she rushes towards her waiting family -but her mother stands still as
a stone. This strange, skinny child, with her hair cropped short,
can't be her daughter. "Not my girl!" she says angrily. Margaret's
years at school have changed her. Now ten years old, she has
forgotten her language and the skills to hunt and fish. She can't
even stomach her mother's food. Her only comfort is in the books she
learned to read at school.
