Dissociate is an experimental narrative about an Indigenous soul trying to cope with and survive in the colonial world.

Story of a healing process of sámi woman who has post-traumatic stress disorder caused by sexual violence.

The film is a visual and musical love letter to the director’s late grandmother, Niillasaš-Jovnna Máret, one hundred years after her birth. Archival interviews and the joik of áhkku unspool as a connecting thread across time, and the melancholic yet playful story offers lessons for the new era defined by giving and receiving.
