The Culture Bar: Voices of the North - In Conversation with Nordic Talents Part 1

We are excited to share with you our second podcast in the new 'Voices of the North' podcast mini-series in collaboration with Talent Norway and Sparebank1 Nord-Norge, Samfunnsløftet.

In episode No.2 Elle Sofe Sara: a Sámi film director from Kautokeino’ we listen to a conversation between a Nordic talent and a mentor from the Talent Norway programme ‘Mer Film’. Mer Film is a programme aimed at young, talented film directors from the Northern parts of Norway.

We are joining Elle Sofe and her mentor Ole in Kautokeino for one of their working sessions on her new feature film project and discuss how the Sámi culture has inspired their artistic endeavours.

Guests:

• Elle Sofe Sara (choreographer and film director, founders of the Sámi artist collective and a traditional Sámi reindeer herder)
• Ole Giæver (film director, screenwriter, actor and mentor)

Hosted by HarrisonParrott’s Karoline Melstveit
