A woman from Lapland falls in love with a Viennese soldier during World War II, becomes pregnant and leaves Finland. She gives birth in Hamburg, but later becomes home-sick and returns to her country. The woman is Mari Soppela’s grandmother, the starting point of Soppela’s film, Family Files. Naturally, it is only the start of the film: in the Soppela family saga, it is merely one link in an endless chain.
