In the sparsely populated municipality of Vilhelmina, the music festival The Midnight Light Festival employs seven young girls to drive the festival’s artists in their epa tractors. In the tractors, unexpected encounters occur in the contrast between rural and urban. During two warm summer nights, we gain insight into the lives, culture and dreams of the seven girls in rural Norrland.
