photo- and interview-book by Pia Christensen and Ulrik Bang

the book

7 Greenlandic women share their stories and dreams. They show us how life choices, initiative and ambitions demands respect from others as well as from oneself. This book will contribute to change the stereotypical picture of the Greenlandic woman as a silent figure in her national clothing – only for decoration. They are so much more than that.
