The filmmakers follow the fates of the Nikkanen family from a village in the Karelian Isthmus to explore the lives of ordinary people during one of the tensest moments of modern Finnish history, so-called Winter War (1939?1940). Tens of thousands of inhabitants of the borderland were forced to leave their homes and set off on a journey towards an insecure future. (Summer Film School)
