A Heavy Metal Civilization TV Areena

A DOCUMENTARY FILM BY: Cristina Ornellas & Maila-Kaarina Rantanen More than a film about Finnish Heavy Metal the story is told by those who made it. Several of the biggest names of the Finnish heavy metal share their views on society, religion, politics, and on how an underground subculture became an important country branding ambassador for Finland. Marco Hietala (Nightwish/Tarot), Gas Lipstick (former HIM, now Flat Earth/Hallatar), Lauri Porra (Stratovarius), Eicca Toppinen (Apocalyptica) and many other great names of Finnish heavy metal will take you into a journey, telling their memories on the scene and Finland since the 80’s. At the end you may be able to decide: Is Finland a heavy metal country?
