“Freedom lies beyond heaven and hell”

One summer night in 1930, nationalist thugs drag Jussi Ketola (Tommi Korpela) from his home in Finland, newly back from Depression-struck America. They beat him and force him to walk the Eternal Road toward Soviet Russia. Antti-Jussi Annila follows him on that march, and his only aim is to get home to his family, whatever it costs, while he walks on beaten and silent.
