Even today, many Greenlanders are moved when they put the record on the turntable, a record that opened their eyes and ears more than 40 years ago. At the time, the original social-cultural structures of the island had already been largely dismantled by the influence of Denmark's colonial power. When the band Sumé (meaning “where”) released its album “Sumut” in 1973, it represented a revolution – it was the first rock record in the Greenlandic language. Lead singer Malik Høegh found the words for the disorientation that everyone felt, singing of precarious lives and fading traditions. The record was soon playing on virtually every turntable in Greenland and become the soundtrack for the burgeoning youth protests as the country began to push for greater autonomy. Using archive material, witness testimony and concert footage, the film revisits the era when Greenlanders experienced a growing self-confidence.
