ARRAN 360
Event description
Six unique Sami filmmakers from all over Sápmi were selected to create new works for ÁRRAN 360°presented on a 360 degree screen. Together, they made visible the willingness to explore and investigate new mediums for Sami storytelling, and stood for cinematic and digital pioneering work. The 360-degree format has previously been primarily used as a visual technique, and to a small extent has been tested in the development of story-driven films with a clear narrative. Six new films from six Sami filmmakers, shot with a unique camera rig consisting of six cameras, in a collaboration with Stargate Media, International Sami Film Institute, Norwegian Film Institute and Office of Contemporary Art.
