Year

Country
Denmark, Greenland, Canada
Duration
92’
Director
Lin Alluna
Renowned Inuit lawyer Aaju Peter (born 1960 in Greenland) has led a lifelong fight for the rights of her people.When her son commits suicide, Aaju embarks on a personal journey to bring the colonisers to justice. She channels her pain into writing an autobiography, and takes on the difficult task of creating a permanent forum for Indigenous issues in the EU, ensuring that Indigenous people have a seat and a voice in European policy. But at the same time Aaju is struggling to break free from an abusive relationship that overshadows her life. This sets her off on a journey to revisit scenes and people from her past, in Greenland, Denmark, Canada and around the world. Fighting for a better future, at one moment we see her putting on makeup to hide her bruises and the next speaking at the UN. But as tension builds, a key question arises: is it possible to change the world and yourself at the same time?
