Description
In a role that inspired a great Bob Dylan song, Quinn plays an Eskimo hunter who accidentally kills a missionary and finds himself being pursued. Filled with authentic and naturalistic details, this shot-on-location epic found maverick director Ray breaking free from the Hollywood studio system for the first time.
