GOVAHALA SÁMI – SKÁBMAGOVAT 2026
Imagine Sápmi at The World´s Northernmost Indigenous Peoples Film Festival with Sámi Queer Moving Images – Sámi queer ealli govat
Imagine Sápmi is a living, ongoing archive within SAQMI – The Swedish Archive for Queer Moving Images, which collects, preserves, shows, and imagines what Sámi queerness can look and feel like in moving images. Working with an intersectional perspective, the project wishes to make visible norms, artistic perspectives on social issues and the importance of recording history in today’s struggles for human rights.
This screening has been curated by the Saqmi artistic director Anna Linder in collaboration with Skábmagovat artistic director Sunna Nousuniemi.
