Synopsis
In the 19th century, Maja marries Janne, a modest fisherman. The couple settle on an isolated island, a place where life is a constant challenge. Over the years, their love grows and solidifies, but war is about to change their destiny. Based on a cult Finnish literary saga, this is a story of emancipation with a great romantic breadth.
