Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Released when Finland's Green Party was surging, Tellus sparked real debate about whether eco-activism belonged in crime drama or was being trivialized.
JP Siili made the cast spend a weekend with actual ex-activists; Minka Kuustonen later said she 'never trusted her own recycling again.'
