FINNISH BLOODY RECONCILIATION



One of the first war conflicts on the European soil prior to Second World war is the short, but bloody dispute between pro-Nazi Finland and communist Russia that succeeded in hiding from the mainstream cinema of both countries up until „The winter war”.

Although modest in resources and orientated towards artsy flicks, Finnish cinema brought us a fairly successful war story about freshly drafted Finnish infantry that engage Russians in the icy forests and meadows devoured by artillery and tanks on both sides.

„The Winter war” is a solid war flick, with some unexpected dramatic and bloody scenes, but not much depth to the story to go along.
