In duorggat doarggistit, four smallbirches (duorga) are cut by a lake on the tundra.The trees are stifled, and the twigs are taken.The trunks are left behind standing in the landscape.

Through filmmaker Elle Márjá Eira's eyes we follow her family in different seasons with their reindeer herd. Ealát is a story about living and surviving in Sámi reindeer husbandry in strange times.

As a prologue to his upcoming exhibition at Bergen Kunsthall (4 Sep – 8 Nov 2020), Joar Nango made three films, together with Sámi filmmaker Ken Are Bongo, that explore Sámi architecture in a TV show format. The series was produced by Bergen Kunsthall as part of the official festival programme for the Bergen International Festival in May 2020, which could not be held in a physical form due to the global Covid-19 pandemic. The series was filmed with a mobile TV studio during travels through the northern landscape, meeting guests for interviews and visiting key architectural sites.

Biegga savkala duoddara duohken lea soames (The wind whispers there is someone behind the tundra) shows a travel in time. The dancers travel in powerful landscape and meet their Sámi ancestors.

Two reindeer herders meet on a small hill in the highland area. A story about the need for company without necessarily saying much, about friction between two herding units, and about an embarrassing silence.
