PRODUCTION COMPANY: IF NOT US THEN WHO

If Not Us Then Who is a US registered charity, 501(c)(3) that supports a
global awareness campaign highlighting the role indigenous and local
peoples play in protecting our planet. We work in partnership with
communities to make films, take photographs, curate content, commission
local artists and host events. Their work aims to build lasting networks,
target unjust policies, and advocate for greater rights for indigenous and
local peoples to bring about positive social change.

12-year-old Tatheer embarks on a week-long Police boot camp for girls from a social housing estate in Copenhagen. Far from home, deep in the woods, she navigates grueling rituals, elusive social dynamics, and personal setbacks to find her place in this tender and revealing coming-of-age story.
