What is this about: 90' s dystopian movie located in Nothern Finland. Finnish version of Mad Max.

Content warnings: Violence
Best about it: This is hillbillyish home made version on Mad Max, a bit more minimalistic and way more akward wich was etertaining. Dystopian brought little bit closer to the reality I'm living right now in Finland. Characters and visuality were also pleasant. Plot was not mind blowing but that's not something I expect from movies like this anyway.
How did I felt: Heart warming, entertained.
Goodness: 4/5
Weirdness: 3/5
