Hi there.

Yes, the movie is called Valo and it tells one story from the life of Aleksanteri Ahola-Valo. The movie is directed by Kaija Juurikkala in 2005, and is based on Koulupojan päiväkirjat (Schoolboys diaries), a series of stories in a diary-like form, written by Ahola-Valo himself.

Good thing you brought up this one! It's an important true story and a good movie. Didn't remember the movie while making a list earlier in the thread..

A few more links:

The movie: Valo (elokuva ? Wikipedia)
