Film director Tuukka Temonen is behind the magazine Kauneus ja terveys in a recent interviewwhy Temos stopped making films through their own production company this year.
The decision was made after Olga Temonen fell ill. His condition has deteriorated significantly recently.
– In this situation, it would seem like a strange and wrong idea to bring the stress of film production into life. The most important thing is that Olga is well for as long as possible. I will continue my directing work otherwise.
It was the last film of the Temosten production company A jellyfish has no heart.
– Our last film A jellyfish has no heart was particularly successful, but constant financial failure makes you unhappy, Temonen states in an interview.
In 2023, Olga Temonen became ill with stage four brain cancer. Temo is currently being treated with the experimental drug ONC201. Temoset has previously commented to the public that they are very hopeful about the drug, even though the situation is not good.
Iltalehti reported last winter that Temonen is on disability pension.
Temos has three children together: Thursday, Hilma and Helga.
