The Gold Panner from Lannavaara

"A Swedish dreamer chases ethical gold across continents—and pays the ultimate price for a boyhood dream."

A film about the gold panning adventures of Hans Söderström, an indigenous Swede. The story stretches from Scandinavia to Africa, via Asia and the Americas, but ultimately boils down to the simple boyish dream of finding gold. Lots of it. And oneself.
