Press & media
Through Nutti Sámi Siida we receive many inquiries from media companies around the world. We enjoy helping you create your dream project and got experience from film and tv-shows as well as documentaries and articles. It is a great opportunity for us to access new platforms that spread knowledge about our culture, at the same time as it is a fun days job! However, we will always charge a certain fee for these visits. In this way, you get the chance to support our business and our culture. You also ensure that we can continue to exist for you and our guests. How much of course depends on what we come up with, your target group and to what purpose you produce your piece.
So feel free to send an email and tell us what your project is and how we can help. But do not be surprised when we want certain reimbursement of the costs associated with these projects. Instead, be proud to have the opportunity to support an important issue in a tough industry through your work.
