  • Watch Online / Varastettu kuolema (1938)



    Desc: Varastettu kuolema: Directed by Nyrki Tapiovaara. With Tuulikki Paananen, Ilmari Mänty, Santeri Karilo, Annie Mörk. A thriller set in turn-of-the-century Helsinki, Stolen Death uses elements of German expressionism to tell the story of Finnish resistance fighters smuggling arms to overthrow the Tsarist occupiers of Finland. Tapiovaara stresses the divided loyalties of the Finnish bourgeoisie, torn between preserving their privileged economic position and taking a risky stand for an independent Finland.
