Elle Marja, 14, is a reindeer-breeding Sámi girl. Exposed to the racism of the 1930's and race biology examinations at her boarding school, she starts dreaming of another life. To achieve this other life she has to become someone else and break all ties with her family and culture.

Certificate number	204209
Date	2017-01-17
Classification	Allowed from age 11
Notes	Digitalfil.
Grounds for decision	Framställningen innehåller inslag av hotfull stämning där en flicka är utsatt ett flertal gånger, en flicka som blir knivskuren av ett gäng män och en flicka som blir utsatt för spöstraff. Flickans utsatthet och den hotfulla stämningen som kulminerar i knivdådet och spöstraffet gör att framställningen kan medföra stark rädsla och bedöms kunna vara till skada för välbefinnandet för barn under 11 år.
