The most expensive film in Finland is “Iron Sky: The Coming Race”. This film is a sequel to the 2012 film “Iron Sky” and had a budget of around 20 million euros. This makes it the most expensive production in Finnish film history.<\/p>\n

Background and production of the film<\/h2>\n

“Iron Sky: The Coming Race” is a sci-fi comedy set in an alternate history where the Nazis have escaped to the moon after World War II. The film was directed by Timo Vuorensola, and the Finnish production company Energia Productions was responsible for its production. Funding for the film came from a variety of sources, including crowdfunding, which raised a significant portion of the budget.<\/p>\n

Plot<\/h2>\n

The plot of the film takes place 20 years after the events of the first film. Mankind has been forced to flee after the destruction of life on Earth, and they have settled on the moon. The film follows the protagonists’ journey to the center of the earth, where they encounter an ancient reptilian race and their leader, Adolf Hitler.<\/p>\n

Budget and production costs<\/h2>\n

The film’s budget, around 20 million euros, was mainly used for special effects, sets and an international cast. This is a considerable amount for a Finnish film, as typically Finnish films are produced with considerably smaller budgets.<\/p>\n

Reception and impact<\/h2>\n

The film received mixed reviews from critics and the public. Although it didn’t achieve the same cult following as the first “Iron Sky” film, it still generated a lot of interest and discussion. The film’s high budget and international production raised its profile and brought more visibility to the Finnish film industry.<\/p>\n
