Full Plot Details

In 1930s Lapland, the 14-year-old indigenous Sámi girl, Elle Marja, leaves the wild ancestral grounds and the family's reindeer camp to attend a remote draconian boarding school along with her younger sister, Njenna. However--as the bright rural student pursues a denied education and an opportunity, desirous of integrating herself into the modern Swedish society--a painful visit by a team of anthropologists paired by a traumatic experience will be the harsh reminders of an ever-present brutal prejudice and a deep-seated racism. Uppsala promises a bright future in the bustling metropolis, but to pass as a regular Swedish teenager, Elle Marja will have to make a greater sacrifice than just changing her name. But, can an outcast sever ties and renounce his proud lineage so easily?

ArtsHub - 8/10 by Sarah WardComposed and compelling in its many forms: as a snapshot of Scandi cultural conflict; [and] as a character study of a girl finding her way in an unkind world.
Film Threat - 8/10 by Filipe FreitasSami Blood gets a solid recommendation from me based on the strength of its lead character, and the interesting angle and added layers to its very familiar premise.

Culturamas - 8/10 by Jaime Fa de LucasAlthough it's a just film... it takes a long time to gain momentum and when it does it lacks the intensity necessary to distinguish it from other works with a similar theme. [Full review in Spanish]
Seventh Row - 8/10 by Alex HeeneyAlthough the film's setting and subject matter may seem a world away, it's an all too familiar tale of assimilation and alienation.
Minneapolis Star Tribune - 8/10 by Colin CovertPsychologically deep and emotionally vivid, it's a complex trip through personal and national history.
