The Women Fighting To Be Vikings

Annually, since 1876, the Scottish isle of Shetland has been home to Up Helly Aa, a Viking festival with all the expected revelry culminating in a large replica longship being set on fire. Traditionally women and girls have never been allowed to be involved in the squads. Two young activists, Lindsey Manson and Izzy Gibson are trying to change that. Fire Starters, a Huck documentary, tells their story.
