Herança Roubada

As a thriller this film is barely adequate BUT I still enjoyed watching it, basically for the Sami culture. I had never even heard of them before and was surprised to find out there was a group of white indigenous reindeer herders with their own language who suffered bigotry from descendants of migrants. Seems to be a global theme, huh? I even did some reading about The Sami after the show. It's a very interesting story which I will be studying more. Back to the film itself: to be fair it is well filmed, the characters are well developed and the performances are good. And beautiful landscapes. It does get a bit repetitious with certain character conflicts and snowmobile chases. But it is a directorial debut and, like I said, I kinda liked it. 7 stars.

While this movie is far from perfect it tells a thrilling story about the racism and prejudice that the Sámi face in their everyday lives. The cinematography is beautiful and the acting is stellar, especially by the protagonist. Since it is based on a book, it can perhaps be forgiven about falling into the same tropes about the Sámi being so close connected to their reindeer (it feels as if every movie makes sure to point out how important the reindeer herding is to the population even though far from every Sámi does this for a living).

The plot was decent and I can understand the frustration that the Sámi must feel since acts of violence towards them and their livestock is far from fictional. A few characters were underdeveloped and didn't add all that much to the story, which made the movie feel disjointed at times.

Overall it is worth the watch and tells an important story.

So cute and causes so much anger... I thought it would be a calm, silly film, but it causes so much anger, indignation and rancidity that it makes us want to try to kill this disgusting being, it only gets worse when we see the protagonist being treated with so many blessings misogyny and sexism, I'm running out of patience for these fictions that cause me staleness and internal anguish... The film is very good, I just don't know if it's me who let these things get me down or if we really have a negative impact on it... .

A young woman struggles to defend her Sámi heritage in a world where xenophobia is on the rise, climate change is threatening reindeer inheritance, and young people choose suicide in the face of collective desperation.

The movie is severly misscategorised and this seems to be the main issue with bad reviews, that it is a lame thriller...

This is a great movie about the struggle of indigenous people trying to protect themselves and their traditional lifestyle in the face of predjudice, discriminaton, hatred, misogyny and violence.

It feels very real and unsettling at times, because it is something you can imagine all over the world. They might not kill the *Reindeers* of the Navajo, Rohingya or Koorie peoples, but besides that they often face the same hardships and fights as the Sámi in this movie.

I'm going to check out the book by sámi author Ann-Helén Laestadius this movie is based on.

Its shelved mostly as contemporary fiction btw and does not try to be a thriller....

A very beautiful and well told drama from the north. This is truly something unique, that you havent seen before. A very important film.

It's extremely well directed, with many beautiful shots over the Nordic parts of Sweden. Its very well put together!

The acting dosent fail at all and stays a very high level throughout all of the movie.

The manuscript fails sometimes with some abit unrealistic parts, but other then that its something the makes the film very good.

The soundtrack is very good.

A very well told story, with excellent performances of drama. Something really good and unique that i totally recommend!
