Rooted in Greenland

Sammivik is based in Nuuk. Our stories are set in kitchens, classrooms, health centres and coastlines our audiences recognise, and they are written with the people who live there.

That is why clients bring us the topics that are hardest to talk about – from children and alcohol to the IUD case – and trust us to handle them with care.

“With Sammivik we had a really good and positive experience throughout the whole work process. They understood what we wanted, and the importance of the health information that had to be communicated. The animation is of very high quality and has been presented internationally with good feedback. We warmly recommend Sammivik as a partner.”
