Awaiting the release of the first official trailer, we reveal some photos from the set of Kyrsyä - Tuftland, the Finnish horror film written and directed by actor Roope Olenius (Bunny the Killer Thing), here making his directorial debut. The film is produced by Bright Fame Pictures in collaboration with Tapahtumatuotanto Kolmas Pyörä and Hiski Show.
Instead, the release is expected by the end of the year.
Kyrsyä - Tuftland spans multiple genres (thriller, mystery and horror) and pays homage to such films as Rosemary's Baby and The Wicker Man. Also framing the story (which does not lack a dash of black humor) are the beautiful Scandinavian landscapes.
Plot: In order to give a break from the monotonous daily routine and to try to shake up her life (dating problems, financial problems, and lots of studying), Irina (Veera W. Vilo) takes a summer job at an isolated village in Kyrsyä. Here the vast Finnish forest will slowly begin to reveal its true nature to the young student.
In the cast: Veera W. Vilo, Saara Elina, Neea Viitamäki, Miikka J. Anttila, Arja Pekurinen, Ari Savonen, Janne-Markus Katila, Katja Jaskari, Mirja Oksanen, Enni Ojutkangas, Matvei Ojansuu, Jari Manninen, Jussi Tuomi, and Niina Ylipahkala.
