What makes North of North so impactful? Audiences point to its honesty and setting
It’s no coincidence that North of North has gotten both significant praise and audience support. Shot in Iqaluit, Nunavut, the show feels textured, and it feels like it sticks to its roots.
It follows Siaja, portrayed by Anna Lambe, whose unwary decision to leave her marriage sends waves through her tight-knit Arctic town.
The show delves into topics pertaining to society, belonging, and exploring cultural identity — avoiding candy-floss depictions of the challenges that comes along. Created by Stacey Aglok MacDonald and Alethea Arnaquq-Baril, the show is also Netflix’s very first Canadian original.
Season one of the show also earned a 100% critical score and a trustworthy fanbase wanting for more.
And actor Anna Lambe’s reaction during a Deadline interview said it best:
“When I got the call...my heart exploded in the best way possible! I’m so excited and overwhelmed with joy, I can’t wait to head back to Ice Cove!”
With North of North coming back to our screens, it’s clear this isn’t just another show with a second season for its fans — it is a cultural moment being cheered back with arms wide open.
From its beating emotional core, the show has turned into a voice for understated stories, and fans are all here for this journey.
