The Last Misfits by The Golden River
(In production)
SYNOPSIS
A film about land, generation gaps, and things coming to an end.
This film follows the human fates of a 150-year-old gold miner community living in the distant Lapland wilderness beyond telephone networks. Their peaceful life comes to an end when a new law forces them to abandon their way of living.
