And Nuka, a homeless Eskimo boy whose search for a family forces him into the white man's world. A stunning portrayal of the collision of two cultures, The Frozen Lady is a dramatic evocation of Alaska before and since statehood, its two opposing worlds, the tempestuous, pioneering men and women who people them and the events that are now uniquely a part of the American experience.
