The film also features Jussi Award-winning actress<strong> Seidi Haarla<\/strong> in a supporting role.<\/p>\n<p>World War II is sweeping across Europe, but a Swedish mother&#8217;s mind is focused on just one thing \u2014 the ocean. Sally has always dreamed of crossing the English Channel, but an unplanned pregnancy in 1930s Sweden forces her to conform to the restrictive gender norms of the time. She falls into deep despair, until finally an opportunity arises for her to challenge society&#8217;s expectations and chase her dream. However, as a single mother and a woman, she must pay a high price for pursuing her ambition.<\/p>\n<p><em><em>Den svenska torpeden<\/em><\/em> is screened at Kino Tapiola on Thursday, 8 May at 17:15.
