Life in the Finnish Woods (Swedish: Livet i Finnskogarna) is a 1947 Swedish drama film directed by Ivar Johansson and starring Carl Jularbo, Naima Wifstrand and Barbro Ribbing. It was shot at the Centrumateljéerna Studios in Stockholm with location shooting around Bollnäs in Eastern Sweden. The film's sets were designed by the art director P.A. Lundgren. It takes its title from a 1913 waltz of the same title by Jularbo, whose signature tune it became. Synopsis
