Onegin

Evgeniy Onegin lives in grand style: balls, receptions, theater premieres and other frivolities the capital can offer a young man. But social life has long tired him, so he perceives the news of the illness of his uncle living in the village as an opportunity to escape. However, having reached the estate, Onegin learns about the death of a relative, which, however, does not upset Evgeniy too much. His financial affairs are very sad, and his uncle is rich and has no other heirs. Onegin locks himself in the estate, living in aimless solitude until the owner, who has returned from abroad, appears at the neighboring estate – a young, enthusiastic Vladimir Lenskiy, not yet satiated with life, who introduces Evgeniy to sisters Tatyana and Olga Larin.

Minun mereni

The Baltic Sea is one of the most polluted seas in the world and climate change is only making the situation worse. It is troubled by eutrophication and the lack of oxygen it causes. With Finland's NATO membership, the Baltic Sea has also become part of conflict-sensitive world politics. However, the Baltic Sea is still much more. The wonderful documentary Minun mereni, written, filmed and directed by Ari Heinilä has been a gigantic work. It reveals to us land crabs the amazing beauty of our sea, which is less appreciated. The sea, which changes according to the seasons, offers unique nature experiences. The camera flying in the sky and travelling under the sea picks up spectacular details of the most beautiful destinations in the Archipelago Sea. The voices of the poetic narration act as e.g. Taneli Mäkelä, Irina Björklund and Martti Suosalo.
