Pathfinder (1987). A young Sámi man witnesses a band of vicious raiders slay his family and flees to a nearby village, where he learns he must become a Pathfinder.

Watching this for the Oscars Project (it was nommed for Best Foreign Language Film in '88!), I didn't realise until afterwards the film's significance in helping preserve the Sámi language and culture - wonderful! I love the capacity cinema has in sharing history, language and cultural dialogue, particular those which have been silenced by colonialism. 

Also! This is great! A really thrilling adventure, albeit a straightforward one. There's a real warmth between many of the dynamics - a nice contrast to the icy surrounds - and it beautifully folds together folklore and realism to tell just a really good story. Highly recommend it! 8/10.

Sara Gaup, 14, is dressed for her confirmation. The garb that she and her father, Nils Peder Gaup, wear identifies their hometown as Kautokeino, Norway. The upturned tips of their reindeer-hide boots were designed to hook into skis.

Here's a damn fine solid amount of all the different kinds of media that I like to personally think and believe both can fit perfectly well in and could actually share the same universe as Chris Sanders & Dean DeBois' How To Train Your Dragon Series (1 - 3 & the TV Series), which you can both read and see below for yourself right about here:

Shipwrecked (1990)

My rating: 6/10

Extremely generic High Seas Adventure stuff - frankly, if you'd told me that it was supposed to be a loose adaptation of Treasure Island, I would've believed it - but for that, it's quite competently made and passes the time fairly well.
