Released in 1986, Linna is a drame film directed by Jaakko Pakkasvirta, running about 99 minutes.

What it’s about. Based on Franz Kafka's famous novel, director Jaakko Pakkasvirta created this interpretation of the woebegone Josef K., who is trapped in an ever-increasing labyrinth of double talk and bureaucratic nonsense in his efforts to reach the castle. As Josef seeks to make an appointment to see the ruler Herr Klamm inside his inaccessible abode, he becomes enmeshed in abuse from lowly villagers and bureaucrats alike. His endless false starts toward the castle's enigmatic interior are partly offset by a few sexual encounters but nothing alleviates his role as a victim of forces beyond his control.

Who’s in it. Linna stars Carl-Kristian Rundman as Josef K, Titta Karakorpi as Frieda, Sari Mällinen as Olga and Anna-Leena Härkönen as Amalia, among others.
