You might
know that the short and often chilly summer in Finland poses challenges to the
gardening, but love – it has no boundaries.The new
documentary Eedenistä pohjoiseen by Virpi Suutari is not about seeds or flowers or flower beds or
gardens. It is
about love.
The film
shows us Finnish couples who love gardening and love each other. It is full of
feelings from craziness to tears, from tender togetherness to sweet loss. It
shows us the lovely Northern nights when the sun hardly sets (yes, you can weed
even then) and the joy of buying plants and bushes, not clothes (in gardens of
Eden you can go naked).
Eedenistä
pohjoiseen (Garden Lovers) won a few weeks ago the main prize in Tampere Film
Festival in the over 30 minutes category.
Now in
cinemas in Finland and let´s hope soon all over the world!
