The Visitor
Directed by J-P Valkeapää
Produced by BlueLight, Exitfilm
A haunting, symbolism-laden rural drama about isolation, inherited violence, and the fragile bonds formed between damaged people in a remote, unforgiving landscape.
A young boy lives with his mother on a farm surrounded by deep forest in the remote wilds of the Finnish countryside. From time to time, the boy visits his father - a man of great violence - in prison. Locked in the stable is an unruly horse, the boy´s only other companion. Their simple life is disrupted when a stranger appears, with a note from the father and a bullet in his side. Reluctantly, mother and son offer the stranger refuge.
