    • Synopsis
    • Winter Lake tells about the joyful times of 13-year-old Emika and his cousin Antti in the magnificent nature of Lake Saimaa. They swim, fish and stay overnight on the frozen lake under the Aurora Borealis. Told from Emika's own perspective, Winter Lake allows us to really share her experiences and connection with nature.
