As two grandchildren listen, Iirgu recounts events in Gambell from the time the first missionaries arrived. His story is known as an ungipamsuk or true historical narrative. With ambivalent feelings, he describes more recent changes – how whaling practices have changed, how life has become easier, but also how younger generations are losing touch with the old ways.<div><br /></div><div><div><b>Films in the&nbsp;</b><a href="https://store.der.org/alaska-native-heritage-film-series-p938.aspx">Alaska Native Heritage Film</a><b> series:</b></div><div><a href="https://store.der.org/at-the-time-of-whaling-p166.aspx">At the Time of Whaling</a></div><div><a href="https://store.der.org/the-drums-of-winter-p896.aspx">The Drums of Winter (Uksuum Cauyai)</a></div><div><a href="https://store.der.org/from-the-first-people-p836.aspx">From the First People</a></div><div><a href="https://store.der.org/in-iirgus-time-p739.aspx">In Iirgus Time</a></div><div><a href="https://store.der.org/joe-sun-p705.aspx">Joe Sun</a></div><div><a href="https://store.der.org/on-the-spring-ice-p548.aspx">On the Spring Ice</a></div><div><a href="https://store.der.org/the-reindeer-thief-p492.aspx">The Reindeer Thief</a></div><div><a href="https://store.der.org/tununeremiut-p356.aspx">Tununeremiut</a></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Note on Term "Eskimo":</b><div><i>The films in this series make use of the name "Eskimo."
