2000 - HBC, The life in Porjus

In loving memory of my grandmother Vera, the star of this documentary, who passed away a few weeks ago. Nobody expected her to become a TV-sensation in Japan - but she proved us wrong.

All in all, this documentary is a brilliant glimpse into the life of our family and the small town life in Porjus in the early 2000's. Posted as a celebration of Vera's life and family, for us relatives to watch and remember. No copyright violation intended, but if HBC wants me to take this video down, please contact me (Andreas) and I will do it.

Finally, huge thanks to HBC and the crew for making this, it has given us an amazing, living memory to enjoy. Sending best of love from Porjus and Jokkmokk, northern Sweden!

Update, August 2024: Thanks to Tomo and Koji Hellman for making translated English captions for this video - which has finally allowed us to understand how the story was told. Warm greetings from the Viklund family!
