Information about the movie Ellos Eatnu - La Elva Leve:
The alta conflict was a 12 year struggle for both nature and Sami rights that left lasting marks.
Hunger strikes and chain gangs - the fight against hydropower in the alta river became fierce.
The movie shows what was truly at stake in this conflict - it was a fight for the Alta river, but even more so a fight for the survival of the sami people.
In the movie we get to follow Ester, who has been hiding her sami identity her whole life. Now suddenly she finds herself in the middle of the historic Alta-conflict.
There is a scene showing a suicide, but the scene is contextualised and not speculative.
