"Sisu" had its world premiere in the Midnight Section of last year's Toronto International Film Festival, where it entertained everyone with its straightforward plot of an old Finnish man who, during WWII, strikes gold, encounters Nazis on his way to the bank, and vanquishes anyone who gets in his way. The film has received positive reviews and is now playing in theaters in North America from Lionsgate. Director and writer Jalmari Helander was kind enough to spend a few minutes talking about his work on the film, who would win in a fight between his badass, seemingly indestructible character, Aatami Korpi or John Wick, and more! Please take a listen, or you can watch the interview below. Thank you, and enjoy!
