A fascinating film that uncovers an overlooked area in Finnish history; When German soldiers withdrew from Lapland in 1944, about a thousand Finnish women for various reasons left the country with them, the majority returning by 1948. A quarantine camp in Hanko, interrogations and contempt awaited them in their homeland. The skillful narrative constructs a coherent, cinematic whole from the humane, emotional stories of individual women, who agree to show their names and faces for the very first time in public.
