Richly atmospheric and spooky, Erik Blomberg's film Valkoinen Peura (The White Reindeer) is beautifully shot and an extraordinary achievement (Blomberg was a cinematographer before he was a director). It takes place in the Finnish Lapland, far, far north, and it adapts a Sami folktale into a quietly troubling monster movie. I watched this with my unseen movie club, and this is a weird, little-seen gem.
