Summary "Juhannuksena: Kolminäytöksinen huvinäytelmä" by Selma Anttila is a theatrical play written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds during the eve of Midsummer, featuring a colorful collection of characters including Aatu, the main protagonist, and Miina, his love interest. The play captures the vibrant social dynamics and interactions among villagers during the festive season, touching on themes of love, class distinctions, and personal aspirations. At the start of the play, we are introduced to a typical Hämäläinen home, bustling with characters preparing for the Midsummer festivities. Aatu, a young man, shares light banter with the rest of the characters, including Kupat-Liena, a quirky woman with a history of fortitude. Various conversations ensue that reveal personal connections and the social hierarchy in the village, particularly regarding Aatu's feelings for Miina, the daughter of a cup-maker, who faces social prejudice due to her background. The opening sets a lively tone, intermingling humor and hints of tension as Aatu grapples with his feelings for Miina against the backdrop of village expectations.
