Plot.

Angel of the North is based on Hugo Simberg's painting: The Wounded Angel. It depicts two teenagers carrying a wounded angel on a stretcher in a barren landscape. Since its creation in 1903, this work, elected "the most beloved" by the Finns, has become a national enigma because the painter has never provided an explanation for it.
