Abstract

U radu se daju pregled i analiza reprezentacije samskog naroda na skandinavskom filmu u
kontekstu teške baštine. Na početku se rada daju objašnjenja osnovnih pojmova kulturne
baštine i teške baštine te kratki pregled problematične povijesti samskog naroda i odnosa s
dominantnim etničkim skupinama. Rad također sadrži kratku analizu reprezentacije Sama u tri
filma i jednoj TV-seriji. Jedan od filmova je švedski film Laponska krv redateljice Amande
Kernell iz 2016. godine. Dva su primjera norveška – film Pathfinder ili Ofelaš iz 1987. godine
redatelja Nilsa Gaupa te serija Dobrodošli u Utmark islandskog redatelja Dagura Kárija iz
2021. godine. Naposlijetku se spominje i animirani film Klaus iz 2019. godine koji , iako nije
djelo skandinavskih filmaša, valja spomenuti zbog reprezentacije samskog jezika, koji ostaje
nepromijenjen i u sinkronizacijama na druge jezike.

Abstract (english)

This paper gives an overview and analysis of the representation of the Sami people in
Scandinavian film in the context of difficult heritage. At the beginning of the paper, basic
definitions of terms “cultural” and “difficult heritage” are given, together with a brief overview
of the difficult history of the Sami people and their relationship with the dominant ethnic
groups. The paper also contains a short analysis of representation in three films and one TV
series. One of the films is the Swedish Sami Blood by the Sami director Amanda Kernell from
2016. Two examples are Norwegian – the movie Pathfinder by director Nils Gaup from 1987
and a TV series Welcome to Utmark by an Icelandic director Dagur Kári from 2021. In the end,
the animated movie Klaus from 2019 is mentioned because, despite it not being a work of
Scandinavian filmmakers, it seemed important to list it because of its representation of the Sami
language, which remains unchanged even in synchronizations to other languages.
