Having met the director of this film, and seen it with some knowledge of the sápmi people. I can confidently say that this film is a waste of space in almost every regard.

Only positive is Terje which is a fucking hilarious character, that brought me so much joy in an otherwhise dumb and generic movie. In a perfect world, he would have his own film.

«A book? Isnt that a bit gay?»
