About the film
Sisu is a 2022 action thriller film written and directed by Jalmari Helander and produced by Petri Jokiranta. The film stars Jorma Tommila, alongside Aksel Hennie, Jack Doolan, Mimosa Willamo and Onni Tommila. It is set during the Lapland War between Finland and Nazi Germany towards the end of World War II, where a legendary Finnish Army commando-turned-gold prospector attempts to defend himself from being robbed and murdered by a Waffen-SS platoon led by a brutal and corrupt officer. Originally, Helander was supposed to work on the science fiction comedy Jerry and Ms. Universe as his next project after Big Game, but the COVID-19 pandemic changed Helander's plan and he moved on to make Sisu. An international co-production between Finland and the United States, the film was shot in 2021 near the Nuorgam village in Utsjoki, Lapland with a budget of about €6 million ($6.5 million).
