In Los Angeles for the premiere of True Detective: Night Country, season four of the popular series, Upernavik-born Greenlandic activist and actress AKA NIVI NA discusses her first tv role as the troubled character Julia Navarro. Having experienced prejudice while living in Denmark, Aka supports opening sustained dialogue about indigenous individuality and seeing increased Greenlandic representation in storytelling and in being part of the world community.
Aka selects a work by Nicolai Abildgaard from the SMK collection.
