The Finnkampen is the oldest surviving international competition in athletics. Sweden and Finland have competed against each other since 1925 in a mixture of respect and love-hate. This documentary by Lotta Fahlberg delves into the history of the Finnkampen, where we get to see the hustle and bustle both on the track and behind the scenes, and the Swedish ups and downs over the years.
