Inspired by Antti Tuomainen‘s acclaimed novel Little Siberia (Pikku Siperia), named a ‘Book of the Year’ by The Times, Netflix has unveiled first-look images from its upcoming comedy-drama thriller of the same name. The film is set to launch globally on March 21, 2025, marking Netflix’s first original feature film from Finland.
In Little Siberia, village priest Joel, played by Eero Ritala (Fallen Leaves), must protect a rare meteorite while facing a personal crisis that threatens his life and relationships. Directed by Dome Karukoski(Tolkien), the film also stars Malla Malmivaara (Deadwind), Martti Suosalo (Fallen Leaves), and Tommi Korpela (Distractions) in key roles.
The everyday life of the small village of Hurmevaara is shaken when a meteorite falls through the roof of a car one night. According to the town’s mayor, the meteorite is very valuable for the future of the slowly dying village. Joel, the village priest, and a veteran peacekeeper, ends up guarding the meteorite in an old museum before it is sent to London for a more detailed evaluation. But a precious meteorite gets a lot of attention… While Joel protects the meteorite from both amateur and professional criminals, he tries to unravel an even greater mystery surrounding his own life. Joel’s wife has recently revealed that she, finally, is pregnant. Great news, but unfortunately, Joel is unable to have children due to his war injury. He just hasn’t told his wife…
