Unna and Nuuk Screening: Mon. Oct 6th, 2008 @ 4:00 PM - Smith Rafael Film Center, San Rafael, CA Sponsored By California Film Institute
In Finnish with English subtitles on our closed headphone system. Unna is an average 11-year-old: She has a cell phone, learns to knit from the internet, handles her single mom with a bit of know-it-all impatience. But when her beloved grandfather suffers a heart attack, Unna discovers she is anything but average. She’s actually a powerful healer, descended from an ancient line of shamans, and she now literally holds her grandpa’s life in her own two hands. With the help of a hidden shaman’s book and magic drum, Unna zips thousands of years back in time, straight into a thrilling escapade beginning with Nuuk, a tribal boy who soon becomes her friend and accomplice. Filmed in the lush forests of Finland, with a resilient pair of heroes and an element of magical fantasy, this mesmerizing adventure for viewers of all ages is a vivid reminder of the importance of friendship and family. Ages 9+
