Edith and Aljosja lives on opposite sides of a river, living separate lives and watches each other. Aljosja expresses an interest in Edith, but she ignores him, apparently. A simple story with magical-realistic elements that can be seen as an allegory of life and love that defies the cultural differences.

Edith & Aljosja is part of the short film series 7 Sámi Stories. Read more about this project at Sámi Film Institute.
