Reindeer Spotting

A disturbing, brutal and beautifully honest documentary feature about a group of young guys living in Rovaniemi, Finland who dabble in petty crime and drugs. One of them wants to leave Lapland and his old life behind. After stealing money from a convenience store he makes his getaway. Reaching the Mediterranean Sea, he takes his needle and breaks it in half on the coast of Sicily. But what happens then? Is it truly possible to change your way of life just like that?
REINDEER SPOTTING is a documentary feature made from within the junkie community. Without moralizing, the director has been documenting the life of his friends, where crime and intravenous drugs are an everyday occurrence.
