The text ‘Black Stars Shed No Light’ that forms the neon also forms the opening line of a new Finnish anthem made by the eight participants of Yael Bartana's film "True Finn - Tosi suomalainen". Each of the eight individuals contributed a sentence to this new anthem. Created to better suit and reflect Finland’s current society, the anthem features as a running thread throughout the film, as an emblem of the vision of Finland being presented. Bartana offers it as a both counterpoint and reversal of right-wing Finnish nationalism; a theme at the heart of "True Finn - Tosi suomalainen".
