Once Upon A Time in The North

Jukka Pekka Siili's Once Upon A Time in The North (Finland, 2012) - In the plainlands of Ostrobothnia, Western Finland, a tradition prevails, according to which the first-born son inherits everything and the remaining offspring must fend for themselves. The law has been cast aside in many areas and groups of men, knife-wielding thugs, nicknamed 'toughs', control the fields. The blade rules the land. ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE NORTH, directed by Jukka-Pekka Siili, will have its international market premiere in Cannes 2012. RATING: 7.
