Waves: A Portrait of Maria á Heygum
Waste youth - but not with the wrong cigarette brand. Even on the Faroes, being young is an issue of style and distiction. And the difference between "Kings" and "Prince" is the difference between provincial backwaters and the big, wide world

True Love
Ingunn is a young woman from the Faroe Islands who has moved to the big city of Copenhagen, where she desperately tries to fit into the hip clubbing scene. She goes out on the town with her Faroese cousin, who is already deeply immersed in the scene and therefore gives her instructions on how to behave at the night's masquerade ball. But perhaps the mask Ingunn has donned is too heavy to bear after all?
A Hipstory

Annika Samuelsen lives in the Faroe Islands and is transgender. She is in the process of correcting her physical sex but this is a long and often very demanding process, that would be made a little easier, if she were able to legally change her gender while she waited. In the Faroe Islands, you are not legally allowed to change your gender before you've changed your physical sex, even if you are receiving treatment where sex correction surgery is the desired end result.
