Directed by Siv West, Finland, 2021 |74 min | Documentary.<\/h4>\n

Eatnameamet \u2013 Our Silent Struggle is a political documentary which reveals the Finnish government\u2019s assimilation and colonization policy towards the S\u00e1mi people. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The film centers around the S\u00e1mi people\u2019s fight for survival and their uncertain future in relations to Finland\u2019s political plans and actions. The S\u00e1mi, as the only indigenous people within the European Union, have throughout history been treated with injustice. The Finnish governments treatment of The S\u00e1mi people has violated international laws, the country\u2019s own laws and civil rights.<\/p>\n

In Eatnameamet \u2013 Our Silent Struggle, the viewer gets a unique insight to the S\u00e1mi people\u2019s situation in Finland and how their lifestyle is being threatened, mainly by rights for land and natural resources. The documentary portrays political situations and discussions that take place out of the public eye, mixed with intimate interviews, archive materials and shots of nature.<\/p>\n
