Helsinki folk were more likely to hand in a dropped wallet than folk in any other world capital.Not bad for a country that almost ceased to exist in the 20th century after famine, civil war and invasion. What explains its incredible transformation?This Finland documentary was filmed and edited by Gavin Hanigan, now a resident of Helsinki, with Lesley Riddoch as presenter and co-producer.Lesley will be joining us at the Soutar Theatre to discuss it and answer questions from the audience.All welcome for what promises to be a fascinating and informative evening.
