Talvisota then perhaps?  Although I don't recognize the characters shown in you picture as being in Talvisota but it has been a while since I saw the movie.  This then looks like maybe that movie the Russians made a few years ago about the defense of Minsk during Operation Barbarossa?

No, it isn't Talvisota.

Another hint: it's not a Russian movie and it's not about Operation Barbarossa. But at least it's WWII  8)

It reminds me a bit of a Finnish film I once saw on YouTube. I think it was called 'The Ambush'

If it is a Finnish movie and it isn't Talvisota. The only one I can think of is: Beyond the Front Line.

I haven't seen it, but I watched the trailer looong time ago.

bob48 got it! It's the Finnish movie "Rukajärven tie", English title "The Ambush" or "Ambush 1941" about a team of Finnish recon soldiers beyond the Russian border in Karelia in 1941!

Ha! That was a lucky guess then.

Could I ask if someone will do the next one on my behalf please, I'm still recovering from having anaesthetic in hospital today, so my mind is not as sharp as it could be.

Thanks.
