Oro Jaska (Shut up)

Shut Up (Oro Jaska) is a groundbreaking Norwegian-Sámi youth drama that follows a 17-year-old girl named Eli Anne. After waking up from a party with hazy memories and realizing she was assaulted, her search for justice is met with a campaign by the tightly knit community and the friends of the accused: Issát, the local snowmobile racing champion. As Elli Anne seeks the truth, Issát simultaneously struggles to keep his own closely guarded secret hidden: that he is queer.

The series explores the destructive cost of silence within tight-knit communities. The title itself translates to “shut up” or “be quiet” in Northern Sami, setting the foundation for the show’s core message.
