Midnight Sun Film Festival

Some 120 kilometres north of the Arctic Circle, this exceptional festival was founded in 1986 by the Finnish directors Aki and Mika Kaurismäki and Peter von Bagh. It boasts one of the most unique atmospheres of any festival in the world: top directors, up-and-coming talent, an international audience and the average person on the street come together during the magical period of midnight sun to immerse in cinema. Altogether about 90 feature films are presented in over 130 screenings.
