In addition to unique nature, the mountains in northern Norway, which is where Ella comes from, also have large copper deposits. When the Norwegian government issues a mining permit for the region and a stunning fjord is threatened by toxic waste, Ella decides to act, joining the front lines of a protest movement. Civil disobedience appears to be the only way to stop the mining. The successful young musician’s activist efforts to gain respect for the planet come into conflict with the interests of the mining companies. The film, set upon the background of Sámi electro-pop, also provides a look at the Sámi community, the history of their forced assimilation, and their will to retain their traditions and natural environment.
