Produced by Tapio Riikonen
"Lalli: Murhenäytelmä viidessä näytöksessä" by Evald Ferdinand Jahnsson is a dramatic work likely written in the late 19th century. The play is set in Finland and delves into themes of conflict, identity, and spirituality, focusing on the character Lalli, a nobleman caught in the turmoil of war and cultural clash with Christian invaders. The narrative seems to revolve around Lalli's struggles and the fate of his family as tensions rise between pagans and Christians. The opening of the play introduces us to a somber atmosphere as Kitka, a local elder, performs a sacrificial ceremony to appease Ukko, the god, alongside a mysterious old sage. The villagers express their despair over recent misfortunes, hinting at the larger conflict looming with invading forces. Lalli eventually arrives to share news and confront his past, revealing premonitions of violence and tragedy that plague his homeland. With tension mounting, Kitka and Lalli discuss the plight of their community while ominous warnings of health and loyalty seem to foreshadow the chaotic events that will unfold.
