Experimental Finnish movie from 1961, about one night in the city. In 1960, the director Eino Ruutsalo spoke of the movie with these words: "The camera moves around the night - loose images are created - they create memories, consortia in us, or do not create. Man as such is interesting. Woman for a man. Man for a woman. There is no final destiny - there are only events. Different people touch each other - nothing is too solid and not ready. Everything hovers and gets new shapes".

For six hundred years Sweden had controlled most of Finland until the war with Russia that ended in 1809, when Finland became a Grand Duchy of the Russian Czar. This period drama is set during that early 19th-century war and focuses on one of its heroes, Sven Tuuva. Sven is a decent yet not too brilliant soldier, and his exploits are partly balanced here by the charms of a compatriot.
