(Muohtačalmmit)

Content: The experimental documentary depicts the flow of water as a metaphor for Sámi people under pressure in modern times. The film deals with water as a sacred element, pathway and daily source of sustenance for the Sámi people. The poetic essence of the narration comes from Pedar Jalvi, Finland’s first Sámi writer, who describes the connection with water in his poem Muohtačalmmit.
