Frequently asked questions

What is Resistant about? Toggle content

Resistant tells the powerful and timeless story of Arndt Pekurinen, a Finnish pacifist who spoke out against war and militarism in the early 20th century. Despite facing persecution and ridicule, Pekurinen remained steadfast in his beliefs, earning him the label of a troublemaker and a traitor. Set against the backdrop of Finland's independence and the Continuation War, this documentary film explores the weak tolerance of dissidents and the high cost of standing up for one's principles. Pekurinen's story is a universal account of a man persecuted for his opinions, and a powerful reminder of the importance of standing up for what we believe in.
