100 Litres of Gold

Teemu Nikki's 100 Litres of Beer is a darkly comic, slow-burning tale steeped in the traditions of Finnish countryside life - but told with the tension and atmosphere of a Nordic western. At its heart are two estranged sisters, drawn together by a dying father, a sacred family recipe for sahti, and a past soaked in resentment and guilt.

What begins as an awkward reunion gradually unfolds into a showdown of buried emotions, twisted loyalties, and bittersweet redemption. Nikki trades in horses for station wagons and saloons for wooden farmhouses, but the spirit is pure frontier: harsh landscapes, taciturn characters, and a simmering sense of moral reckoning. With its offbeat tone and soulful undercurrent, 100 Litres of Beer proves that even the far north can serve up a fine western - cold, cloudy, and with a strong kick.
