Teemu Nikki (1975) is a self-educated, award-winning filmmaker and son of a pig farmer from Sysmä, Finland. His film “Euthanizer” (2017) was a festival success and the official Finnish Oscar entry for the 2019 Academy Awards. “The Blind Man Who Did Not Want to See Titanic” (2021) won the Orizzonti Extra Audience Award in Venice. Last year PÖFF screened two of his films – black comedy “Death Is a Problem for the Living” and family film “Snot and Splash”. Nikki has also directed numerous short films and popular series. Nikki’s style is best described as a good-willed yet unapologetic political satire of humanity.
