An Ode To Humanity
Absolutely heart-warming comedy about two stranded soldiers from opposite lines who get both taken in by a beautiful, child-of-nature like woman in the remote wilderness between Finland and the Soviet-Union. The trio speak three different languages, and on top of all the linguistic chaos, the two men naturally try to continue the warfare against each other. ‘Kukushka’ plays like an ode to humanity and is just a pure joy to watch. 8 stars out of 10.

Cuckolded?
In “Kukushka” (called “The Cuckoo” in English), Finnish sniper Veiko (Ville Haapasalo) and Russian soldier Ivan (Viktor Bychkov) get shot in WWII-era Lapland, in northern Finland. They end up on the farm of Saami woman Anni (Anni-Kristiina Juuso). She nurses them back to health, and the three of them form a bond, even though they can’t understand each other’s languages.

For me, “Kukushka” was interesting because we get to see the Saami culture. I’ve known about the Saami for many years, but never seen their culture until I saw this movie (I hope to learn more about them in the years to come). Another thing that struck me about this movie was the title: a cuckoo lays its eggs in other birds’ nests (the verb “cuckold” comes from this). In this movie, Veiko is called “cuckoo” by some people; one might say that he and Ivan “lay” the war in Anni’s “nest” (Alfred Hitchcock’s classic “The Birds” also looks at this idea, with Melanie “laying” the big city in the “nest” of the small town and bringing chaos). Either way, “Kukushka” is a great movie, and a neat opportunity to hear four different languages: Russian, Finnish, Saami, and German.
