7 Sámi Stories

 

sami


THE 7 SÁMI STORIES gives voice to contemporary Sami screen storytellers, embodying visions of a new generation of Sami filmmakers, made as a collaborative project.

7 directors and three producers each shot a film, in a span of six weeks, using the same film team, in the village Kautokeino on the vast tundra of Sápmi.

THE 7 SÁMI STORIES cross many borders, telling the stories that have been kept silent.

November 26 - December 6, 2015

The FISDN present film series focused on different countries and regions. This section intends to discover and explore different spaces and cultures with the aim to understand the specific regional, political and social circumstances, do reconstruct the emotional and intellectual spécificities of a special region or country. In this critical work we belief it's essencial to prefer films which rufuse, in its form and expression, the retake of sterotype ways of reality restituition, as an act of resistance in the actual period of "globalisation", which inclins to impose one dominating model of culture and habitutes.
