Sysmäläinen

Overview

In 17th century Finland young Arvid is forced to marry Brita but their ways soon part when their respective fathers move to different places.

However, he has fallen madly in love with a local maiden who does not reciprocate his advances, not to mention that his forced marriage to Brita is still valid.
