Louhi, The Northern Witch is a silent film with an ambient-folk score. Basing on The Kalevala, the Finnish national epic, the story draws from its shamanistic aspects. The lead character is Runoi; a nascent witch who confronts his mothers night terrors and is quickly transported into the realm of Louhi, the witch-queen of the undead. He journeys to axis mundi, the mythical pillar connecting heaven, earth and the underworld. Main characters of The Kalevala are introduced as vessels for him to pass through. In the lines of Carl G. Jung's anima/animus theory, they represent subconscious element of one's sexuality, the opposite of the dominant side.
