Olga - Pour mes amis
( Olga - To My Friends )

2013 - 58 min - Couleur - Finlande, Norvège, Suède

In the Russian part of Lapland, some 1,800 kilometers north of Moscow, winter temperatures drop down to the negative double digits and there's hardly a human being to speak of. Here, Olga lives in a simple dwelling under a thick layer of snow. She looks after the rations and vehicles of the reindeer herders, who won't return until spring.
