The film OFELAŠ, nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film in 1988, is based on a saga that the Sami-Norwegian director, Nils Gaup, was told by his grandfather. With its breathtaking natural scenery and powerful images, the film is accompanied by an ensemble of five eminent artists from both the Sámi music scene and the nordic jazz-scene, who have created their own soundtrack for it. The silent film concert THE PATHFINDER was performed for the first time at the Tromsø International Film Festival in 2017.
