About Jeftha’s Daughter
The famous lawyer Juhani Leno lives in a gloomy castle far into the dark forests. As a son of a fool and an anonymous gentleman he had a bleak upbringing. Ever since then, all he is doing is relegated to the humanity that treated him so patronizing. His whole soul is obscured by a furious hatred.
Directed by Robert Dinesen, Jeftha’s Daughter leans on a strong ensemble — Ernst Eklund, Signe Kolthoff, Bror Olsson — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1919.
