Everything changes when an art dealer finds Helene and her 159 stunning paintings - and wants to organize a large solo exhibition. However, Helene’s momentous moment finally comes when she is introduced to Einar Reuter. Young Einar is a forester and an avid fan of Helene’s work as an art enthusiast. She becomes Helene’s believer and beloved. (Estonian Film Institute)

She lived in seclusion, socialized very little, painted in her own way. Finns pay tribute to their painter and the beautiful landscapte of Finland. Her life was not easy and must have been exhausting, but her work endures. A nice biopic where nothing much happens except for one disappointment in love, bickering with her mother and the struggle to get recognition for her work, even within her family. She wasn't a secret service agent, she was an artist painting intimate pictures - so the movie is quiet and brooding, about an art worker.
