Máilmmittkus is a surreal journey to the complex relationship between Indigenous peoples and the unstoppable force of technological progression. The film depicts different stages of technological advancement and their effects on Indigenous peoples.
Modern technology is often seen as a downfall of sustainable ways of living on the land. Still, according to many historians, the Sámi have themselves, at least partly, embraced and welcomed the technical revolution also in the past.
