Tuuma
8 years has passed since the attack from a Qivittoq on the 6 young people in Qaqqat Alanngui. Tuuma is a tourist guide and often sails with tourists, while he is out sailing with 2 tourists they wants to go to the place where the young people were attacked, against Tuumas will. When they get there Tuumas bad feeling becomes a reality and the 2 tourists disappear. Tuuma quickly sails back to Nuuk to get help from the police. But is it a good idea to go back and look for the tourists? When the Qivittoqs are in the mountains.
The relationship between Greenland and Denmark is full of fantasy and myths. And these are exactly what Danish artist Lasse Lau reflects upon – and in turn documents – in his first feature-length film. But how do you give a form to the Greenlandic experience when you are an outsider yourself? Lau has created a sensitive film about authenticity and recreation by letting both elements become a part of the work, together with his performers. But also by watching and listening intently. The colonial history is entrenched in both Greenland's infinitely beautiful landscapes and in the collective consciousness. But so is the willingness to break with it and look ahead with a new political self-awareness. 'Lykkelænder' is the result of a long-term research project, but talks about its extremely complex topics in a way that grounds the postcolonial perspective in a recognisable life experience. It does so with both a sense of humour and with emphasis.
