Sihja, el hada rebelde

A suburban child's everyday life is visited by a magical fairy. This fantastic element always makes a movie fly, as it brings so much life embracing creativity to the viewing experience. And just like in the movie ET, a lucky human gets to be close friends with his inspiring visitor. These two buddies then support each other when the story lines up things that could very well be a To-Do list from a kid's wildest dreams. They fly together, crawl in the mud, sneak in forbidden places and solve a crime. Such a good concept deserved its slightly larger budget than the average Finland produced films. The out-turn avoids all big fall downs but is a bit like its oddly vague movie poster that weirdly manages to avoid to beautifully decorate all the magic with that cozy sparkle.
