Markku Lehmuskallio, Finnish, is a woodsman turned filmmaker. Anastasia Lapsui, born under a Nenètse tepee and the granddaughter of a shaman, became a radio journalist in the Nenètse language and has never stopped singing the stories of the tundra. They met 30 years ago, and have been making documentaries and feature films together ever since, inspired by the lives and legends of the Arctic peoples of Siberia, Canada and Scandinavia. Two beings united to create a cinema of resistance, inspired by the sacred breath of myths and the relationship that the cultures of the Far North once had with Mother Earth.
