00925njm 22002777a 4500 dc Narváez Torregrosa, Daniel Carlos author 2024-04-25 This article discusses the film Sotapolulla (‘On the warpath’) (1922), a pioneering work in the early years of Finnish cinema. By highlighting the role that women played during the Finnish Civil War (1918), scriptwriter and director Teuvo Pakkala, a well-known conservative writer, created a model of femininity for the post-war period. The construction of the female characters accords with the standards of femininity in Hollywood silent film, which featured strong, assertive women committed to the social order. Thus Pakkala’s film in significant ways follows the classical model that Noël Burch identifies as an institutional mode of representation. 2042-7891 http://hdl.handle.net/10259/9156 10.1386/jsca_00104_1 2042-7905 Teuvo Pakkala Finnish silent cinema Finnish Civil War Cinema and gender Cinema and history Cinema and contemporary conflicts A narrative of women and war: The Finnish silent era film ‘On the warpath’
