The film is set in the Museum world in a turning point, where the museums have to deal with their colonialistic history. The National Museum of Finland returned thousands of objects taken from the indigenous Sámi people back to them. The film seeks a connection with ancestors through old museum objects, eventually arriving at the collective pain points of the Sámi people. How can the damage caused by outsiders be repaired so that collective pains can be left behind?
