New Finnish Film: Nightborn (Yön lapsi, 2026)

Saga (Seidi Haarla) and Jon (Rupert Grint) have long dreamed of having a child. When they move to a house in the middle of the Finnish forest, where Saga spent her summers as a child, they soon have a healthy son. But gradually, Saga begins to feel a growing sense of dread that something is strange about their demanding child. As their marriage begins to fall apart, Jon struggles to support his wife, but Saga is the only one who senses the terrible truth about their newborn baby. Nightborn is a psychological thriller that explores, in a completely new way, feelings related to parenthood and relationships that are often taboo. The film competed at the Berlin International Film Festival, Berlinale, in 2026. Screenwriter and director Hanna Bergholm and screenwriter Ilja Rautsi previously worked together on the film Ruva (2022). Swedish subtitles. Location: Kulturhuset Storbrunn, Östhammar.
