I've been reading Steffanson's Adventures In Diet as posted here and am mesmerized. I looked for more information about the man through Google and discovered that there's a 2003 documentary about him, Arctic Dreamer. Here's the web page about it on Canada's National Film Board web site.

http://www.nfb.ca/collection/films/fiche/?id=51490

It's not available through Amazon USA or Amazon Canada. It's not available through Netflix. It's not even listed in the IMDB. The description on the NFB page, though, looks phenomenal!

Has anyone seen or heard of this movie? Anyone know anything about it?
