Si2u (Sisu sequel) trailer is out… and it leans into anti-Soviet/anticommunist tropes
The first film Sisu was a Finnish national/military propaganda film, kind of like Top Gun is to America. It followed the events around a fictional John Wick-esque character as he confounds the Nazis during their retreat out of Finland at the end of WW2. I don’t remember much from that movie, but I think the presence of the Soviets was minor.
This one looks different. Si2u is set in 1946, just after the war, and now the villain is the Soviet Union.
I swear to God Finland is the embodiment of horseshoe theory and double genocide myth. It’s weird that movies like this still get made in 2025.
