Title:
מיתוס הסמפו - מקור בלתי נדלה לעושר ותאווה - האנה אילונה הרמווארה
Speaker:
Hanna-Ilona Härmävaara
Description:

After a skirmish at sea and long days of being battered by waves, Väinämöinen— a powerful bard as old as the world itself— washed up on the shores of distant Pohjola. A cunning witch nursed him back to health but demanded a reward for returning him home. Not content with mere gold or silver, the witch wanted what did not yet exist. Hanna-Ilona Härmävaara digs into the Finnish myth of the Sampo. [Directed by WOW-HOW Studio, narrated by Addison Anderson, music by Bamm Bamm Wolfgang].
