Punatukka

A story about young factory worker Tuija, who has recently met an interesting young man. When the death of a friend interrupts a monotonous and carefree life, the strangest week of Tuija's life begins.

Directed by Maunu Kurkvaara, Punatukka leans on a strong ensemble — Tarja Markus, Veikko Honkanen, Sinikka Hannula — 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 1969.
