Any Finnish or Swedish language media you would recommend?

Oh I'm ALWAYS recommending the Moomin books by Tove Jansson! They are lighthearted and funny, but also surprisingly deep and heartwarming and philosophical (especially Moominpappa and the Sea, my beloved). The comics are fine too, but they lack the heart the books have imo. The 1990 animated series is also gold and a staple for any millennial (and i'd wager a lot of gen z and even gen alpha) kids in Finland. The real version is the fennoswedish dub, but it also exists as an english dub (in fact I think more episodes are dubbed to english than were released in swedish [executive decision by the local broadcast company]).

Maria Turtschaninoff has written some ya (-ish? idk how to classify them) fantasy books that I really enjoyed, and at least the Red Abbey Chronicles have been translated to English.

Stormskärs Maja is a book series that got turned into a beloved tv series in the 70's, and in January this year it got adapted into a movie. The titular track from tv series is well-known (you can hear my choir and our friend choir from Trondheim sing it here), and I've yet to watch the movie but I've seen it get good reviews! Afaik it's available internationally - look for Stormskerry Maja.

I'll throw in a Swedish recommendation too: the musical Kristina från Duvemåla by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus (yes, the ABBA guys) has so many wonderful songs in it, and it's a shame it hasn't made its way onto bigger stages abroad. The original cast recording is available online afaik. I've sang Du Måste Finnas from this show, the titular Kristina's big number in the second act, several times, and got it recorded during a workshop I was part of last spring, so maybe I'll share it here sometime.

Ask me anything!
