I really don't feel them

Carl Giffney


Synopsis

I really don't feel them is a feature length documentary shot in The Netherlands, Scotland and Finland. The film forms part of Frontiers in Retreat, a 5 year project, supported by the EU Culture Fund, Scottish Sculpture Workshop, Mustarinda (FI) and the Helsinki International Art Programme (HIAP). The film documents the making of a unique pair of bronze Dutch clogs that are forged in Scotland as the Independence referendum is taking place. These special shoes are eventually brought on a trip up the length of Finland, travelling North to the Saami people, the only indigenous people in Europe, who live in Northern Finland, Sweden, Norway and Russia.'
