Tapio Piirainen's big-screen adaptation of the popular Finish police drama Raid juggles a complex story line. After his ex-girlfriend is killed in an arson attack on a newspaper, criminal Raid (Kai Lehtinen) is asked by police officer Jansson (Oiva Lohtander) to investigate because Raid has access to undesirables who may know something about the attack, as well as a seemingly political killing. Raid was shown in competition at the Gothenburg Film Festival. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi

Human nature and the inhuman cruelties that come with war are the focus of this challenging, pensive, well-photographed drama. Lt. Leimu (Jukka Puotila) is in charge of a prison camp in an unnamed country. A civil war is drawing to a close; in fact, there are only two days left in the fighting. Each day, the lieutenant is forced to interrogate prisoners and then send those who belong to the "enemy" to the execution block. He cannot help but get personally involved with some of the prisoners in the camp, which makes his job of judge, jury, and hangman all the worse. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi
