Finnish photographer Jaakko Heikkila has been listening to the stories of Armenians in Armenia and the Los Angeles area. Through these pictorial stories he handles brutality, suffering, refugees and cultural identity, new possibilities and relationships with their new home country. The pictures are strong and beautiful, glimpses from houses without floors, from the walls of palaces and from modern houses. The cruelest period in the long and eventful history of the Armenian people is the genocidal act committed by Turkey in 1915-1918. There is hardly any Armenian who has not been affected by this mass murder, and many Armenians live now scattered around the world. Jaakko Heikkila has been listening to the stories of the political message and it is an important one: although up to 1,5 million people died in the atrocities committed in Turkey; NATO and USA among others have not recognized it officially as genocide. Brother Serafim has written a concise history of Armenia that completes finely the pictures.

Lars-Levi Laestadius (1800-1861), parson, thinker and a man of strong influence, has left his mark on the mind of all those who come from the northern regions of the Nordic countries. In this work, Heikkilä walks in the northernmost Swedish Lapland, in the birth place of the Laestadian religious movement. With him he carries pictures of the parson himself and his seven preachers dating from the19th century. He finds people who are quiet, strong in their humility and who have experienced the atmosphere of prayer houses from the beginning of last century to the present day. He finds the nothern vernacular; the heavenly poetry and the life supporting full-bodied self-irony. Amazing present day portrait photography interspersed with the old pictures, the latter mounted on transparent paper with fire in the background, interesting technique - beautiful book by one of Finland’s foremost art photographers.
