Evakko is a portrayal of Soviet-Finnish winter war of 1939/40 and the associated evacuations in different parts of the country. It tells the story of a Karelian family along with their whole village who were forced to leave their homes because of the war. The film has a surprisingly perky tone for the subject matter.

Police chief Olavi, health nurse Liisa Niemi and photo reporter Takola are investigating the disappearance of a local girl.
