In a world of perpetual change, One day the sun will only shine for you takes us on a journey through our hedonistic and fragile contemporary age, where the shadows of our actions stretch far into the future. It is a mythological voyage through excess, unrest, noise, injustice, power, and pleasure, weaving the intangible cultural heritage of the indigenous Sámi people into the endless cycles of life.
