I have known Jere for years and I have followed his journey since his first feature film Ensitreffit, in which I also had a small role. Jere started his filmmaking career in his early twenties and has not stopped since. Jere has his own production company and advertising agency, and that's how he makes his living.

Unlike many other filmmakers who leave to bigger cities, he has stayed in his hometown Varkaus, which is a small city in Finland. Instead of moving to LA he wants to bring Hollywood to Varkaus. And so far he has succeeded in it by bringing international cast (including Eric Roberts) to Finland to act in his new movie Insite.

This is a candid and wonderfully interesting conversation with filmmaker Jere Koistinen and editor Teemu Kantonen about how Insite was made.
