Sisu is a good example of distortion.

   It's a good film, I suggest you guys might like to watch it:

   However, I want to make the point that when it comes to films, movie and generally media there's quite a lot of historical distortion happening here. For example the Finnish actually were in deeper conflict against the communists during world war 2, and actually did allied with Nazi Germany against them due to the 2 having a common enemy, and the Finnish hating the Russians for taking some of their territory:

 

 

   Interesting how it's only the Nazi Germans that are the bad guys in SISU, but no mention of their more hated enemy, the communists USSR and the red army.

   Arguably, a much better movie, that is based on true events, that is just crazy and unbelievable and really shows how crazy and bad ass those Finnish are, is a movie about this:

   Furthermore it also showcases what we call meth, as a ration for those soldiers then, and social commentary around that drug. Not to mention this'll fit very nicely as a movie because at first it's just too good to be true, yet ALL of the events surrounding that soldier, did happen. Think the cocaine bear, but it's a soldier that overdosed, and is fighting the ENTIRE red army camp and squads that were chasing him. Just crazy!
