Sámi bojá
Sámi boy

Shortfilm, 9 min.

Mikkel is a sámi reindeer herder who has responsibility for the family’s reindeer. On the outside Mikkel appears to be in control, but there is deep darkness on the inside.

The film is part of Seven Sámi Stories initiated by the International Sami Film Institute, 2014.

Sad eyes
Pale Smile
And Secret Tears
Heavy burden
A steep uphill you climb
When the clouds are black
And the mind is heavy
Thoughts fly over the rainbow
