TREATY 1 TERRITORY, WINNIPEG, Manitoba \u2013 Production has started for the second season of Arctic-set comedy \u201cNorth of North,\u201d which premieres on APTN, CBC and Netflix later this year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Actress Anna Lambe reprises her starring role as Siaja, with actors Maika Harper, Braeden Clarke, Jay Ryan, Mary Lynn Rajskub, Zorga Qaunaq, Bailey Poching, Nutaaq Doreen Simmonds and Keira Cooper.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The show follows a young Inuk mother named Siaja who is attempting to build a new life in the tiny Arctic community of Ice Cove.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After leaving her marriage to self-absorbed husband Ting, Siaja crashes on her mother Neevee\u2019s couch with her daughter Bun and attempts to rebuild her life independently through hilarious mishaps and mess-ups as she discovers things about herself and her family\u2019s past.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The show also embraces the nuances of Inuit life, culture and language of the Indigenous people of the Arctic regions of Canada, hence the title \u201cNorth of North.\u201d<\/p>\n
