A genre in itself, the lumberjack film boasted heroes that could steer logs through rapids and split trees in half. This survey of Finnish lumberjack films, created since the 1920s, showcases Finland’s rich history of the logging tradition, and its importance in developing a national identity following its 1917 independence.
