THE VISITORS

CZ, NO, SL 2022, Veronika Lišková

Film talk with director Veronika Lišková, protagonist Zdenka
Sokolickova, visual anthropologist Flora Bartlett and Prof.
Christoph Mauch, Director of the Rachel Carson Center for
Environment and Society at LMU Munich.

A paradise of ice and snow. Ever since Zdenka, a young
anthropologist, moved to Svalbard, she has been fascinated by the
wild beauty of the Arctic landscape. Like Zdenka, people from 52
nations have taken up residence in the small settlement of
Longyearbyen. But the fragile equilibrium of the international
community is under threat. Rare insights into life on the
boundaries of human habitation.
