SILENT TRAIN
Sissel M. Bergh
Artist Sissel Mutale Bergh describes her latest film, Elmie (2023) – a Southern Sámi word meaning sky, air and storm – as a documentary poem and a lamentation on air, breath, birds, mountains and wind power. For several years, Bergh has followed the construction of – and opposition to – industrial windfarms at Fovsen/Fosen in the southern district of reindeer herding at ÅerjelFovsen Njaarke Sijte.
Ivars Gravlejs
Our films can be divided in two categories: art films (following an idea, an experiment) and documents (everyday life in the school: fights among classmates, teachers). Movies  called “I.R. Piktuers” (I. = Ivars, R. = Rinalds, Piktuers = twisted word “pictures” were mostly made between 1992-1993 at the elementary school in Riga.
