Reindeerspotting is a documentary film of a group of young guys living in Rovaniemi, Arctic Circle, dabbling in petty crime and hard drugs. One of them, Jani, has lost five years of his life and two fingers to his debotators. He wants to leave Lapland and his old life behind. Robbing a supermarket is a start for his getaway. A few years back a documentarist, Joonas Neuvonen, was a young man living on social welfare, using drugs on daily basis. He started to film his friends and their life. This is the story of Jani.
Reindeerspotting is director Joonas Neuvonen’s first documentary. He started to film the addicts when he came back to Rovaniemi in 2003 after living abroad for a couple of years.
