NORTH OF NORTH Gets International Release On Netflix Next Month

After debuting on CBC, Arctic comedy North of North starring Anna Lambe will be released on Netflix.

The series stars Inuk actor Anna Lambe (True Detective) as lead character Siaja. She is a young Inuk woman who dreams of reinventing herself. Unfortunately she finds herself in her tiny Arctic community of Ice Cove, where everybody knows your business. After a spontaneous — and extremely public — exit from her marriage. Siaja finds herself navigating the unpredictable, and often hilarious, highs and lows that come with relationships, motherhood, a new job, and finding your way.

The eight episode, half hour comedy filmed in Iqaluit, the capital of Nunavut.

We’ve already survived a blizzard during prep, so there’s no doubt our amazing cast and crew is ready to shoot a show in the Arctic. Also, a huge nakurmiik to our community of Iqaluit for being so welcoming — we couldn’t do this show without your support. — executive producers Aglok MacDonald and Arnaquq-Baril in a statement. 

Filming ran from 14 March 2024 through to 18 June 2024. Aglok MacDonald and Arnaquq-Baril are co-showrunners on the project. The series aired in Canada on APTN, CBC and CBC Gem in January.

The series stars Maika Harper, Keira Belle Cooper, Kelly William, Braeden Clarke, Mary Lynn Rajskub, Jay Ryan, Zorga Qaunaq, Bailey Poching and Nutaaq Doreen Simmonds.

Netflix subscribers can watch North of North from 10 April 2025.
