Water

#Tjaetsie

The film is a visual sound poem, a political investigation into human-ocean relationship. Tjaetsie means water in South Sámi language. The film takes us to the inhabitants both in and around the sea, a journey through vulnerability and hybris. With human-affected time as our backdrop, the mythical figurine "Gorrijh gujne" (Spawning Lady), of the Froan sea represents the ancient forces of Ocean.
