Imagine Sápmi is a living, ongoing archive within SAQMI – The Swedish Archive for Queer Moving Images, which collects, preserves, shows, and imagines what Sámi queerness can look and feel like in moving images. This collection aims to make Sámi queer culture, its struggles, and lives visible across time, by enabling screenings and contexts where to see and discuss the films. The project wants to inspire and create new possibilities and encounters. Imagine Sápmi is a part of the screening project Queer Moving History, which has curated public film programs for various contexts since 2020, bringing together contemporary and older films.
The program is curated by Eili Bråstad and Anna Linder in close collaboration with all the participating artists and the advisory group for Imagine Sapmi.
