About Landet som icke är
A poem about the poetic pursuit that in a harmonious way longs for death to occur. Life's desires and worries have done much harm to the poetic self and the person sees death as a help to loosen a large weight from their shoulders.
Directed by Tuija-Maija Niskanen, Landet som icke är leans on a strong ensemble — Pirkko Nurmi, Majlis Granlund, Elmer Green — 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 tv movie titles of 1977.
