Author Linnankoski, Johannes, 1869-1913
Title Taistelu Heikkilän talosta
Credits Produced by Tapio Riikonen
Summary "Taistelu Heikkilän talosta" by Johannes Linnankoski is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the mysterious and complex dynamics within the Heikkilä estate, focusing on the formidable character of the housewife, Anni. As the narrative unfolds, it hints at deeper tensions and struggles within the household, reflecting personal ambition, family legacy, and societal expectations. The opening of the novel introduces the Heikkilä house as a seemingly welcoming place that harbors a more profound, enigmatic atmosphere. The narrative reveals the housewife Anni, previously joyous, who has become somber and withdrawn following her marriage. The contrasts between the vibrant life she once led and the oppressive aura of her current surroundings set a stark tone. Tensions rise with the arrival of various characters—servants, townsfolk, and the new master of the house. As the unfamiliarity of relationships and the weight of secrets loom, the initial admiration for Anni morphs into speculation about her past choices and present struggles as she grapples with power dynamics influenced by her husband’s descent into alcoholism and their family's rickety fate.
