The Sámi Film Festival originated as a partnership between the National Nordic Museum and Pacific Sámi Searvi in 2018. Since that time, it has become an onsite event drawing audiences from the East and West Coasts and an online event sharing Sámi film with a global audience.
Passes and individual tickets will go on sale in January 2023.
The 5th Annual Sámi Film Festival explores Sámi stories through film in a must-see hybrid event taking place both in-personal and virtually! The Festival is organized by the National Nordic Museum in Seattle and Scandinavia House in New York and presented in partnership with Pacific Sámi Searvi. Attendees can screen films online on February 9-12 and in person at both venues on February 11, 2023. The program will include a variety of contemporary Sámi documentaries, short films, and panel discussions with the filmmakers. In 2023, the Sámi Film Festival will feature the selections of this yearÂ’s guest curator of film and acclaimed Skolt Sámi director Katja Gauriloff. Gauriloff, who co-owns the production company Oktober, was recently awarded the Finnish Film AffairÂ’s top prize for JeÂ’vida, the first film shot in the Skolt Sámi language. The focus of this yearÂ’s Festival will be the work of Sámi women directors. |
