About Stolen Movie:
Stolen (Swedish: Stöld) is a Swedish drama film directed by Elle Márjá Eira, in her feature directorial debut, based on the 2021 novel of the same name by Ann-Helén Laestadius.
Director Elle Márjá Eira is Sámi herself and grew up in Kautokeino. Actress Elin Kristina Oskal is also Sámi, having grown up in Saltdal, Nordland. During her school years, Oskal was the only Sámi student in her class. Eira stated that it was important to cast Sámi actors, as they would be familiar with reindeer herding as well as the struggles the Sámi community faces.
Filming took place in Sápmi—specifically Vittangi and Övre Soppero in Norrbotten County, Sweden—in early 2023.
Ahead of the premiere, Netflix released promotional images on 15 February 2024. Two teaser trailers were released on 19 March 2024 and 5 April 2024, respectively.
It was released on Netflix on 12 April 2024.
