Aimo Jäderholm's (1916-2012) fine shortfilm about the northernmost village in Finland, Nuorgam. It offers almost ethnographical insight into the hard life in the high North. The camera visits Rajala, the northernmost house in Finland. Civilization is rearing its head even in thefarthest corner of Finland. (Tampere Film Festival)
