Reindeer Girls

Episode 13 of 15

Wildlife documentary about Elle and Inga, cousins from the north of Norway who are reindeer herders. We follow the girls as they accompany the herds on the annual migration.

Elle and Inga, 17-year-old cousins from the north of Norway, are far from ordinary teenagers. They are reindeer herders from one of Europe's last indigenous people, the Sami. So they are equally at home helping reindeer swim fjords or ice fishing as playing with the internet and mobile phones.

We follow the girls and their families as they accompany the reindeer herds on the annual migration across the arctic tundra, gaining a unique insight into the lives of the girls and the reindeer on which they depend in this bleak and beautiful world.
