Plots(1)
Based on true events, The Eternal Road is an epic story of one man’s struggle for survival. Jussi Ketola returns to Finland from the great depression that struck America only to face growing political unrest. One summer night of the 1930s, nationalist thugs violently abduct Ketola from his home. Beaten and forced to walk the Eternal Road to the Soviet Union, where cruelty seems to know no end, his only dream is to return to his family at any cost. Hope dies last. (Estonian Film Institute)
