Flowers of Evil
Editor
Unrest breaks out in eastern Helsinki as a Finnish family man gets hospitalized in the summer of 2015. Gangs of young people are burning down cars and public buildings, confronting the security guards and the riot police. The narrative goes backwards, towards the riots which mark the end of our movie. As the story begins, the unrest is still bubbling under, ready to explode any time. Vandalism and robbery are not uncommon in the suburbs; neither is violence towards the police and the security guards. Frustration, alienation, isolation and poverty corrode the asphalt surface of the multicultured society, otherwise relatively harmonious.

1944
Editor
В фильме рассматриваются военные события, происходившие в Эстонии в 1944 году, в период от июльских боёв в Синимяэ до ноября, когда полуостров Сырве был уже завоёван войсками Советской Армии. Война показана глазами участников событий с обеих враждующих сторон - эстонцев, которые воевали и на стороне немецкой армии в 20-й эстонской дивизии Waffen-SS, и в составе 8-го Эстонского стрелкового корпуса Советской Армии. Для жителей Эстонии это была война, в которой каждый делал свой личный выбор. Именно с таким нелёгким выбором сталкиваются главные герои картины - солдаты противоборствующих сторон Карл Таммик и Юри Йыги - а также их сослуживцы, родные, близких и совсем незнакомые люди...

Vares: Private Eye
Editor
Vares, a film noir comedy from Finland, is yet another twist on PULP FICTION. And, just in case we miss the similarities of splattered blood mixed with outrageous incidents, the movie explicitly references PULP FICTION and has a comedic scene in which two guys argue about McDonald's hamburgers. Still, VARES - PRIVATE EYE, by director Aleksi Mäkelä, manages to be kind of fun even not especially original. The script has more characters than the screenwriter can handle, leaving the audience frequently confused about who is doing what and why. The two best scenes are one about a wacky wedding and another about a guy who answers a cell phone call while he is busy enjoying the pleasures of a sex parlor.
