Postia pappi Jaakobille

Letters to Father Jacob
Directed by: 
2009

The film explores the emotional and spiritual bond that is formed between a blind pastor and a convicted murderer and shows the Gospel message of unconditional love and forgiveness in an uniquely refreshing and surprising way. The relative simplicity of the story combined with the emotionally charged yet serene acting of Kaarina Hazard and Heikki Nousiainen makes this an intensive film experience.
