Folktales

Exhausted by loneliness, social anxiety, and all the crushing barrage of pressures felt by their generation, teenagers leave the comforts of home to enroll in a traditional folk high school in the wilds of northernmost Norway. Dropped in the arctic wilderness for one year, they must rely only on themselves and a pack of loyal sled dogs as they take the daunting step from childhood to adulthood. Freed from technology, social media, and the noise of modern life, this brave trio learns to face themselves for the first time, and experience an unexpected transformation.
