Commentary: Today's Friday comment is a tribute to the people I met during my three month long trip in Northern Norway. A film as thanks to the generosity, warmth and real-life stories in the shadow of government press conferences during a pandemic. 50 people, each with their own story.

Not a single minister. Not a single representative of the health authorities. Not a single state-authorized statement of opinion.

Just the daily life as it behaved, a few day trips from the official Norway's iron grip around the news dissemination.

Happy weekend and enjoy your summer!
