	SEA: the Finnish Film Archive: Starring: the Finnish People
		For the first time there were two equally strong producers in the country which did not only compete for market shares but were also striving toward hegemony in defining the essence of national cinema and its audience.
		Furthermore, the goal is to explore the more polyphonic features among the films, the audiences and patterns of spectatorship as well as the concept of national cinema itself by means of case studies of film analyses, archival material, film reviews and other contemporary written accounts.
		Suomi-Filmi and SF influenced essentially not only the formation of the Finnish film industry in the 1930's but also the way the system continued all the way up to the early 60's, even, I believe, the way it stands these days (whether this be a case of seeking for models or repression).
