The must-see Finnish film of the beginning of the year. All screenings of Stormskerry Maja now have both Finnish and English subtitles.
The archipelago epic brimming with female energy brings a tear to the eye, but leaves you feeling empowered and grateful, marveling at life.
Based on the novels by Anni Blomqvist, the film tells the story of a determined woman’s life on a remote isle in 19th century Finland. Rural life has plenty of challenges, but Maija is full of love, strength and life.

“Myrskyluodon Maija on muutamista traagisista tapahtumistaan huolimatta valoisa, toiveikaskin elokuva, jossa romanttinen rakkaustarina, luodon ankara arkielämä ja ympäröivä luonto lomittuvat kauniisti.”
