Designed for seniors, HopeaCiné’s programme features new Finnish films, once a month.
Klaus Härö’s new film, Blue Baby , tells the story of two women who meet in the midst of a crisis in the care sector. Specialist nurse Inka (Laura Birn) carries out her work with great dedication, caught between demanding working conditions and the pressures of her own family life. Leni (Oona Airola) and Kari (Jussi Vatanen) see their happiness begin to crumble when their newborn baby is suddenly rushed to intensive care.
Nurses are planning a strike to demand better working conditions, and Leni, who is feeling confused in these uncertain times, finds support and hope in Inka. However, Inka is facing some difficult decisions. Both women are motivated by love and a sense of duty – but how can they make the right choice when their own lives and the lives of others are at stake?
Each HopeaCiné screening invites filmmakers or film experts as guests, who discuss the filmmaking process and offer fresh insights to deepen the viewing experience after the film. The guests will be announced at a later date. HopeaCiné screenings are also shown at Cinema Orion and Malmitalo.
