Silent Trilogy

2024 / Finland / Comedy / 61

This playful ode to early cinema unites three silent shorts by Finnish director Juho Kuosmanen: Scrap-Mattila and the Beautiful Woman (2012), The Moonshiners (2017), and A Planet Far Away (2023). Featuring a grieving widower, moonshiners with a pig, and a space-bound lighthouse keeper, the films blend humor, sharp wit, and the unique presence of non-actor Jaana Paananen. Above all, they celebrate the resilience and warmth of society’s outsiders.

Director: Juho Kuosmanen
