NEWS!
Herdswoman was awarded with the Documentary Film Prize at the 50th Nordic Film Days in Lübeck! The film has earlier won an Audience Prize in Norway and Best Esthetic Award in Nepal.
The participants
Lisa likens the meeting between the Sami and the non-Sami world to a couple of soap bubbles touching each other. Both are beautiful, they are together, but there will always be a divide, a boundary between them.
The film makers
Rasmus Ohlander has been active in editing since 1998. Graduate of the Editing School at University College of Film, Radio, Television and Theatre in Stockholm.
