Näyttelijättären tarina: Romaani
Produced by Juhani Kärkkäinen and Tapio Riikonen
"Näyttelijättären tarina: Romaani" by Selma Anttila is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a young girl named Katri, who is being encouraged to become an actress by her mentor, Maisteri Alpre Harju, as he recognizes her innate talent. Set against the backdrop of a world on the brink of war, the narrative explores themes of artistic ambition, societal constraints, and the personal struggles of a girl striving to find her place in the world. The opening of the novel introduces us to Alpre Harju, an aesthetic educator deeply immersed in the world of literature and art. It depicts his growing concern for his ward, Katri, who has gone missing. As he searches for her in the surrounding woods, he reflectively contemplates her potential to become a great actress, despite her wild and untamed nature. Alongside this, we see glimpses of Katri’s life at home, characterized by her father’s struggle and her own aspirations, culminating in her decision to chase her dreams despite the challenges she faces. This opening sets the stage for a poignant exploration of a young woman's journey towards self-discovery amid the societal expectations of her time. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
