We had a kid get thrown out of the classroom for having smelly feet.

Another asshole at my boarding school once copied my math homework as I wrote the word "Elephant" as the answer to a math question

The missing fingers definitely says ocean goddess. But the main character has a caring role in which she quite literally grooms (Not in the negative meaning) her sister as a response to outside influence. Which screams angakkoq if we're looking at ocean goddess imagery. She herself isn't mutilated, nor does she provide for the town materially.

The dog connection is clever, but I don't know if she marries a dog in the inupiat version of the tale. Tbh my only knowledge of the tale is as Arnaqquassaaq.

She's not sedna. If she's sedna then they needed to ask any of the Inuits on set what was up. At best her treatment of her sister is an analogue to the way the angakkoq cares for the ocean goddess and washes away the filth left by others.
