Synopsis

Kyrsyä – Tuftland is a mixture of thriller, mystery and hillbilly horror accompanied with Twin Peaks style black humour. It’s a Finnish take on films such as the Wicker Man and Rosemary’s Baby, presented in the beautiful and endless landscapes of Finland.

The female driven film revolves around a headstrong textile student Irina (Veera W. Vilo), who tries to overcome her problems by accepting a summer job offer from an isolated and offbeat village of Kyrsyä. As Irina begins to get a grip of herself, the harmless and offbeat hillbillies begin to reveal their true nature.
