What happened?

The Brothers of Hate tried to kill Yrjo.

I killed them.

Give me a smoke.

Aune betrayed us.

She left Helena in Blumenthal's hands.

Martikainen and his officers, they're all involved in this.

Brothers of Hate.

Find Doc.

Get Yrjo to safety. - What will you do?

Kill Aune. - Good.

Against the Devil and the Russkies, Martikainen.

Answer me! - Against the Devil and the Russkies!

Good. Start the car.

Where are we going? - To see the Devil.

Help me.

When you were born, you didn't emit a sound.

I wondered how someone so small could be so strong.

You had this sharp gaze.

You observed everything, just like me.

My milk never rose to my breasts and you were hungry.

You never cried at all.

Aunt Anya was worried there's something wrong with you.

I told her no.

She's my girl. Just like me.

The only time you cried was when I left you.

As if you knew I'd never come back to Finland.

That the war would continue and I'd be caught.

Mommy, don't go!

I realized you're not like me.

You had emotions I would never experience.

You have a different place in all this.

I just didn't know what it was then.

Didn't you ever miss me?

Ever?

I got the message that you're alive, saved.

You didn't remember who you are.

That's when I cried.

Of relief.

You got rid of your past and your memories.

I was finally free.

Free to disappear.

To become what I was meant to be.

I never wanted you. I didn't want to be a mother.

A monster, you think.

You're magnificent.

Who are you?

The balance of terror.

1,000 men are going to the border, 200,000 are ready to be called to arms

Just remember that in war, victory is in higher hands.

The faith must be strong in everyone.

The Soviets shoot their rockets at us, and everyone's faith is strong.

How about the president's faith in our mission?

The president is strong in his faith.

We must be prepared to go even further.

What do you mean?

What the hell? Martikainen?

He said if I stop tooting, he'll shoot me. - Who?

God damnit!

Aune!

Open the door, damn hit! - Aune, open up!

Balance.

Without me, the world will sink into chaos.

A storm will rise and wipe us all away with it.

Do you understand?

If we don't do the right thing, there will be a world war.

And that's why you are here now.

You found me right now, chased the truth until it had to show itself.

There's no such thing as chance. All this has a meaning.

Come.

I failed.

He died in my arms.

Yrjo is gone.

Helena...

And you...

I'm the only one left.

You want to shoot me.

You have every right to do so.

I have made my choice. It has consequences.

But I had to do it.

The country's best comes first, Olavi. For the fatherland.

It's not...

It's not that... - That simple, right?

Right.

It is. Just as black-and-white.

I believe this is our last chance to get Great Finland.

A country where all Finnish tribes can live without the oppression of the Russians.

If you shoot me here, Yrjo died in vain.

I'm not talking about Yrjo.

Siiri died.

Because I chose Yrjo...

The Fist, the fatherland. - Siiri?

I didn't know. - She died

From the bullets of the killers you sent.

You!

Siiri dreamed of the same...

A better world. You have fought for it already.

We fought side by side because we believed Karelia belongs to Finland.

No, no!

Drop that gun! - Get out!

Aune... - Get out!

I couldn't help it.

That's what I thought. That you're...

A mistake. And when I left, it felt right.

To leave your own child?

I didn't think of you any more.

Not until I heard Yrjo had succeeded in the impossible.

He had given you a new life. A normal...

Boring, normal life.

Helena Korhonen. Suddenly I couldn't get you out of my mind.

I had to see you.

I was at your confirmation service.

Your graduation.

When you buried your mother, Edith. - You have no right to say her name.

I wondered -

how I could have given birth to something so predictable.

A young, well-mannered woman -

who would study for a few years, -

fall in love with an older professor -

but then marry a decent boy from a good family.

And live happily ever after.

I was proud of you.

For the first time.

My child. You were a part of me.

You shone goodness.

Warmth.

I felt something...

Maybe it was maternal love.

You and me.

We're fighters.

That's why we're still here.

Ooops!

I thought I lost this, but you had it all the time.

Unto gave this to me.

Just tell me what I need to do.

Wage wars, Olavi. We need to wage wars again.

I made a mistake. I followed you to New York.

My enemies realized you're important to me.

Yevgeni's man attacked you.

I tried to prevent it, but I was too late.

But you didn't need my help.

When I saw the might you had in your attack, what you did to him...

Everything snapped into place.

I killed him. - I buried the body.

That what mothers do, clean up their children's messes.

You can't escape your destiny, Viena.

Not you, not me, not anyone.

They attacked you, because something that was hidden was to be awakened.

And now that force has brought you to me.

You were not a mistake. You were born for a purpose.

What? - When I saw you with your father in Porkkala, it was clear.

Your destiny is my destiny. - What fucking destiny?

Kekkonen has made a pact with the Devil and he must be stopped.

None of us will survive it.

Your mission is to save your fatherland by killing your father.

Angel of revenge.

I'm not a killer. - What did Aunt Anya teach you?

That's sick. - Don't fight it.

Stop it! Listen. Stop it!

Stupid girl! You're my daughter!

You have a clear role in this war.

And if you don't accept that, you're making a mistake.

You are a mistake. And I don't make mistakes.

You see?

You're perfect.

Each one of us has a limited time on this earth.

Ylitalo led a good life.

He got to give it for his fatherland.

My condolences for Ylitalo.

I know how close you were. - Well, what's the situation?

The invitations to the party have gone out.

A press briefing has been summoned.

The men are on their way to the Eastern border.

Make sure the reporters understand this is first page news.

The headlines must be seen all the way in Moscow.

Yes, Mr. President.

Against the Devil and the Russkies.

There was an attack at the hospital.

Yrjo is dead.

The Brothers of Hate are going to kill everyone in your group. Including you.

Stay here. We're safe here.

I'm leaving. - You would, wouldn't you?

Or is there something you want to ask your daughter?

What do you want? For me to apologize?

Only you can get close to your father. Do it!

I won't kill anyone. Not for you.

You don't understand the stakes. - No, you don't understand.

I don't know who I am, but at least I know who I am not.

I'm not Helena. Edith is not my mother.

I'm not Viena and you're not my mother.

Even now.

I'm sorry you've ended up like this.

Take me back to the city.

Who are you? - Malmsteen from next door.

I'm the distraction. - What?

The distraction. That's what she said.

You're no ordinary widow, I guess. - No, I'm not.

Listen! I need help!

Tabe?

Olavi!

Thank you.

I noticed you in the cellar.

You didn't flinch when I shot that comedian.

You were in JP4 in the Continuation War?

I had a friend there, fought with you in the same places.

Eemeli Syrja.

Everyone called him Eetu.

He liked to play his guitar.

We didn't have any Eetus there.

You don't trust me.

Let's make a deal.

You have until the end of that cigarette to convince me.

I'm a simple soldier with simple needs.

I don't want to think nor to talk. I do what I'm told.

Good. Then go carry the stuff.

We should have never sold weapons to these people.

We didn't sell any weapons. - So, we were the middlemen.

They will kill everyone who knew. Ambassador or not.

Sir, it been a pleasure.

You're leaving? - Not gonna stick around for World War 3, that's for damn sure.

You should consider it, too. - I cannot abandon my post.

Come on, George, you're a diplomat. Maybe try a little diplomacy.

Kekkonen seems like an opportunist.

Make him a better offer than the Brotherhood.

We lost.

Let's disappear. To somewhere warm.

With beautiful men and lovely cocktails.

Where the war won't reach us.

Change of scenery.

All's well, right?

I'm sorry, kiddo.

So this hurts now?

I'm almost done. Hang in there.

It really wasn't your fault.

We're at war.

Siiri was the first victim.

This war is too important.

You don't need to sell it to me. I'm in already.

All done.

A new chapter is starting in Finnish history.

And you're one of its authors.

Against the Devil and the Russkies, Olavi.

Against the Devil and the Russkies.

Hello.

Are you in pain?

I found Aino.

She...

She spoke very nicely of you.

You saved me.

You protected me from Aino.

Your mother is not a bad person.

None of us are, really.

She just...

Can't... - I know.

Forgive me. I'm so sorry.

Aune betrayed us.

She's going to attack the Soviet Union with the Brothers of Hate. - I know.

Olavi has gone after her. - Tabe is going to disappear.

And I'm a burden. - No, you're not.

What will I do?

You've... You've always told me what to do.

And look where it got us.

Aino said I must kill Kekkonen.

Almost 100,000 Finns fell in the war, -

leaving behind 30,000 war widows -

and 50,000 war orphans.

Now that our country is rapidly growing wealthier, -

even though conflicts of interest are tearing at our society, -

it's time we remembered the children -

who lost their nearest adults, their father or mother.

That's why I am announcing that this coming Friday -

near the Eastern border, where the scars of war are the deepest, -

we will organize a public collection.

The collection will be launched in a party at Simpele town hall on Friday.

It will be immemorable. - How many exits?

How many windows open?

These children and youngsters -

who have to live without the support from an adult -

need of course all possible...

help.

Time is flying and I must fly, too.

My adjutant will answer your questions.

Don't ever sneak up on a woman like that.

What do you want? - To leave with you.

If I stay, they're gonna kill me.

The whole band is leaving this joint. It's over.

Take the bags.

Oh, George.

So it took the presidency to make you charitable?

I'm not in the mood for... How you say it, you breaking my balls.

What's on your mind? - War.

Which one? - The one you must prevent.

You see, we don't mind the Reds paying attention -

to something else other than the Suez Canal for a change.

But full-blown armed conflict with what we consider a friend...

And where was that friend last time we could have used him?

Friendships take time. You know...

If it weren't for that pesky doctrine of active neutrality -

that your predecessor talked you into, -

you might have already been a member of the NATO.

And how long would it take in present circumstances?

There are fast tracks and even faster tracks.

Bullshit.

What? - Fuck that shit.

It took four fucking years for West Germany to join NATO. - What's the rush?

All good things come to those who wait.

Meanwhile, I wouldn't count on anyone's help, -

should you be foolish enough to poke the bear.

Urho, don't start a bloodbath.

Thanks for coming by, George. Give my love to Martha.

PRESIDENT KEKKONEN TO HONOR WAR ORPHANS

You!

What are you doing here?

Came to talk to my father.

You'd better leave while you can. - Sit down.

You have your whole life ahead of you.

Don't ruin it.

I understand, but let's not do anything rash here.

It is what it is. I have made my decision.

With no legal grounds.

She's a spy. - We have no evidence that will hold up in court.

Get evidence. Or don't. I don't care.

I'll write the order for execution myself.

Good.

And then...

Take care of that child.

You told him to kill a child.

And now you want revenge. - No, I don't.

I came here to stop you.

Will the people follow you to war if this secret is revealed?

You can choose.

Will you be remembered as the hero of Finland or...

A child killer.

The train that is already in motion -

is not something even the Fist can stop.

The Fist is dead.

It died with Yrjo.

No, it didn't.
