Laulumaiden muisto - karjalaisia lakeuksilla (2023)
Directed by Tomi Saarijärvi
Documentary · 57m
After the end of the war, Finland had to find a new home for a total of about 430,000 evacuees, of which about 407,000 were Karelians. Laulumaiden muisto is an emotional documentary film that tells the story of the evacuees from Karelia and their descendants who were placed in the region of South Ostrobothnia. It sheds light on how the emigrants who lost their homes were able to preserve their own identity and why Karelia still fascinates and interests future generations. The war in Ukraine, which broke out in the middle of filming, made the documentary surprisingly timely.
