Map of the Human Heart (1993)

A Canadian film spanning a lifetime

By Bob  Jun 10, 2003

A young Inuit boy is taken from his far north home to "civilization" to be treated for turberculosis by a visiting map maker. Subsequently, the boy, who has returned home and has become a young man, is again visited by the same map maker, ...now a member of the Royal Canadian Air Force. The second meeting takes the young Inuit into the war, love, heartbreak. Well worth watching. And, for a brief seconds, one can see a genuine, World War Two, Wireless Set No. 19, on the ice, receiving music sung by another TB patient, a girl known to the boy. The 19 set was loaned to the film makers by an Ottawa Amateur Radio Operator. For more info, see http://www.qsl.net/ve3bdb Read more Less
