Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale (15)

Tuesday 15th - Wednesday 16th December

Dir. Jalmari Helander, Finland, 2010, 79 mins, subtitled. Cast. Onni Tommila, Jorma Tommila, Tommi Korpela, Peeter Jakobi.

In the depths of the Finnish Korvatunturi mountains, 486 metres deep, lies the closest ever guarded Christmas secret. The time has come to dig it up! In Northern Finland near the Russian border, an American millionaire finances a secret excavation on a mountain where, it transpires, the ancient Laplanders froze and buried the real Santa Claus. He was a monstrous, horned cannibal whose elves, rather than bringing presents, used their sacks to bring children to their evil master. A young boy named Pietari and his friend Juuso discover the secret and when Pietari's father captures a feral old man in his wolf trap, the man may hold the key to why reindeer are being slaughtered and children are disappearing. Intriguing, fun and a brilliantly black alternative to the usual classic Christmas schmaltz!
