The film takes its origin in Marakatt-Labba's piece Historjá, a 24 meter long embroidery depicting motifs from Sami history. The embroidery has found its home at the University of Tromsø and was exhibited at Documenta 14 in Kassel. This year, Marakatt-Labba is one of the artists presented at the Sami pavillon at the Venice Biennale.

With small stitches, Marakatt-Labba evokes the history and mythology of the Sami people, as well as stories of colonialism, state-supported racism and political strife. After decades of protesting her people's rights through art, she is now facing another struggle: the fight against climate change. Marakatt-Labba's family consists of reindeer herders and the film depicts how climate change affects the family's work. Will it be possible for her son to carry on the family tradition?
