Credits: Produced by Tapio Riikonen
Summary: "Jaana Rönty" by Eino Leino is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows the life of the main character, Jaana Rönty, a young girl living in the Finnish countryside, whose journey takes her from a secluded and harsh home environment to the bustling city of Helsinki. The narrative explores themes of social struggle, personal growth, and the quest for identity against the backdrop of rural and urban Finnish life. The opening of the novel introduces Jaana's isolated life in the Finnish wilderness, where she lives with her strict, old grandmother and her father, Iikka Rönty. The stark landscape is characterized by unyielding elements, and Jaana's upbringing is steeped in both conventional maternal care and a strict, sometimes cruel discipline. As she grows older, Jaana yearns for a life beyond the constraints of her upbringing. This longing eventually leads her to escape her troubled home life, as she faces harassment from a visiting merchant and the heavy-handed approach of her father. This narrative arc sets the stage for Jaana's transition to city life, where she seeks her independence and grapples with new challenges and social dynamics.
