Description
The interface between humans and nature is seldom as tangible as in the
historical county of Norrbotten in northern Sweden on a summer night.
The midnight sun is in the sky, wilderness gives way to a mining
village, brutal gaping pits incised into the terrain as if by a
surgeon’s scalpel but on a massive scale. In a Fiat Ducato trundling
towards morning, three people feel not small but speechless.
