Eleven photographers went to look for Finland. They discovered children's nature trips, national diseases, Russians in Lappeenranta, a man shut away in a room, a national landscape, Chechen refugees, Johanna Tukiainen, death, home, peacekeepers and Santa Claus. A number of different subjects form a collage that reflects the view of Finland held by the free-rider generation. The series of photographs looks at the nation through details, bringing together a variety of clichés and surprises.
