The Midnight Sun Film Festival, held from June 11 to 15, 2025, takes place in Sodankylä, in the heart of Finnish Lapland — over 120 km above the Arctic Circle, where the sun never sets in summer. Founded in 1986 by the Kaurismäki brothers and the local municipality, this unique festival offers a 24-hour non-stop celebration of cinema under the midnight sun. Films are screened in multiple venues around the clock, blending timeless classics with cutting-edge contemporary works. The festival is famous for its relaxed atmosphere, close interaction between filmmakers and audiences, and its special silent film concerts. Over the decades, it has hosted many legendary directors and continues to be a cherished event for cinephiles worldwide.
