Saivo

Description

Taking its name from one of the Sami realms of the dead, from which the Noiadi (or shaman) draws their strength, ‘Saivo’ is a beautiful observational piece filmed at the Isogaisa festival of shamanism in Sapmi / Northern Norway. Here shamans from around the world gathered to share their traditions. This experiential feature film explores the lineage between the moving image and transcendent rituals, seeking to take the viewer to the far north of the planet and beyond – on a journey of their own.
