In this short larp Women in Finland you will experience the state of the Finnish feminist struggle during the last 100 years. You will dive down in five very different times and meet three very different women each time. There will be The Friend, the ex-radical; The Mother, who has accepted a life according to societal norms; and The Daughter, a radical who rebels against her mother and looks up to The Friend. These women are invented anew in each episode, but still stay the same.

The game is a localized version of the game Women by Susanne Gräslund & Anders Hultman. My game takes the story to Finland, a country with more wars in 20th century than Sweden and where many steps forward were taken 30 years later than in Sweden.

The game is a classical freeform scenario: no need to prepare before the game. No fancy mechanics, very suitable for beginners. All the player characters are women but anyone regardless of their gender is welcomed to participate.

Sign up is open until 20th March. The game is for 3-4 players and therefore we need to know in advance the number of people attending.

We'll arrange two games, if there are enough participants. If there are more sign ups than spots, we'll have a lottery after the sign up is closed. We'll inform you if you got a spot in a few days after the sign up is closed.

Content warnings: losing a child, alcoholism of a parent, war, discrimination against women, discrimination against queer people. Some of these can be exluded but not all.
