Sisu

April 23, 2023

Sisu (Finnish: Sisu; original working title Immortal) is a 2022 Finnish historical action film written and directed by Jalmari Helander. The film debuted at the Midnight Madness section of the Toronto International Film Festival in September 2022.

During the last desperate days of WWII, a solitary prospector (Jorma Tommila) crosses paths with Nazis on a scorched-earth retreat in northern Finland. When the Nazis steal his gold, they quickly discover that they have just tangled with no ordinary miner. While there is no direct translation for the Finnish word “sisu”, this legendary ex-commando will embody what sisu means: a white-knuckled form of courage and unimaginable determination in the face of overwhelming odds. And no matter what the Nazis throw at him, the one-man death squad will go to outrageous lengths to get his gold back – even if it means killing every last Nazi in his path.

Starring Jorma Tommila, Aksel Hennie, Jack Doolan, Mimosa Willamo, and Onni Tommila.

Sisu is set to debut in theaters April 28th, courtesy of Lionsgate. Watch the official trailer below.
