In Sweden’s first documentary about Swedish wool, we’ll learn how natural fiber can save Swedish culture. Through the journey of Rebecca and William, who work to open Sweden’s first large-scale spinnery in decades, we witness the revival of a forgotten craft and community. Alongside them, the spinning master James wrestles with his longing for his homeland, Tasmania, and the burden of preserving the rare knowledge to prepare the unique Swedish wool.

Interwoven with stories of farmers, apprentices, and herders, the film reveals how one natural fiber holds the power to restore connection, purpose, and pride, proving that saving culture begins thread by thread.

One man’s fight to save the earth begins with a return from death.

Raised in a world that erased his identity, Indigenous activist Jacob Johns lived through trauma, prison, and protest. But after being shot at a peaceful demonstration, he crosses into the spirit world - where ancestral elders offer him a second chance. What follows is no ordinary recovery: returning with a sacred mission to transform rage into healing, Jacob sets out to unite humanity, protect the earth, and ignite a global peace movement.

"Sijte" is a short film that explores the life of Evelina Solsten, the youngest female reindeer herder from the southern Sámi region of Sweden. Set in the starkly contrasting beauty of Swedish summer and winter, "Sijte" captures the intricate relationship between Evelina, her family, and their reindeer. Evelina’s story raises critical questions about the future of Sámi traditions and the challenges posed by modern-day colonialism and environmental changes.

Through the lens of the misunderstood ear-carving ceremony, a sacred act that bonds Sámi and reindeer, this film invites viewers to consider what we lose by not knowing this culture, and what is at stake if these practices and the cultural and ecological balance they uphold begin to collapse.

MY BRANCHES, OUR ROOTS

Documentary about women’s economic self-sovereignty in rural Albania

Shot
Two weeks February 2023.

Post-Production
March-May 2023.

Official Screening
May 2023.

In a post-communist Albania, where the polarity between men and women is still drastic, and cultural gender oppression is hiding beneath the surface.

Elona Bejo leaves Tirana behind to reclaim her family’s land in the Ballaban valley, launching an Ecotourism farm in a region where women rarely own, let alone lead.

Her presence alone disrupts old norms. Her insistence on working with local women challenges generations of silence. Against prejudice and cultural resistance, Elona builds something larger than a business: a model of survival, solidarity, and quiet revolution for women.

Through this intimate portrait, we learn what it means, and what it takes, to run a business in a country where women don’t.
