House of orphans
Thomas Esklund is a widowed country doctor. His life in the quiet provinces is settled and sedate, broken up only by his duties to his patients and calls from his attentive and firmly nosey friend Lotta. He appoints Eeva from the House of Orphans as a housekeeper. Her assured, unpredictable and enigmatic presence gradually throws Thomas? household into turmoil. Lotta, concerned or jealous, worries that Thomas is falling in love with Eeva and plots to remove the orphan from her new home.

http://schema.org/description
- "Finland 1901. Eeva, the young orphaned daughter of a revolutionary, is sent from the orphanage to work as housekeeper for Thomas, a widowed country doctor. Her enigmatic presence disturbs Thomas as much as it fascinates him, shattering all the certainties of his life. Eeva longs to be back in Helsinki with the comrades of her childhood, particularly Lauri. But life there is full of danger. The power of the Russian Empire over its subject peoples is growing more oppressive, but resistance to the Tsar's rule is growing too. Some call such resistance terrorism; others call it a fight for freedom. This spellbinding story of love and loneliness is also about the tensions that arise in a country emerging into independence."
