Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
A newly-married woman becomes frustrated as her husband, a reindeer herder for an Arctic village, spends much of his time away. Desperate for affection, she visits a shaman who offers a potion that makes her irresistibly desirable, but at a terrible cost: she becomes a bloodthirsty shapeshifter.
Drawing from the deep well of beliefs of the semi-nomadic Sámi people, Erik Blomberg’s Finnish folk horror is a snow-encrusted tale of shape-shifting shamanism. Weirdness lurks deep in the desolate landscape of Lapland, where the fight to survive rubs up against the insatiable hunger for love.
