There Will Be Spring is a new Finnish drama film depicting a Karelian family of war evacuees relocating to a new town as a consequence of the war against Russia in the 1940’s. The themes revolve around racism, lust, loss and war.
This is also the first feature-length film using Livvi-Karelian as its main language, insofar as is known. Even as such, the film is a notable work in the history of Finnish film.
Our guests are writer-director Annika Grof and producer-editor Joon Tervakari.
‘There Will Be Spring’ will hit the Finnish theaters on 28th August 2020.
Directed by Annika Grof. Starring Asta Sveholm, Turkka Mastomäki, Timo Lavikainen, Sari Havas, Antti Raivio.
