FINNISH FILM FROM 2023, PG 15. Norwegian subtitles

81 MIN

Industrial worker Holappa meets Ansa, who has just lost her job at the supermarket. Sweet music arises, but challenges await our everyday heroes.

Finnish veteran and master director Aki Kaurismäki is known for films such as The Man Without Memory, Le Havre and The Other Side of Hope. Here has again composed a song about true love on Helsinki's shadow side.

"A romantic comedy with simple conflicts, underplayed characters and large amounts of dry-witted humor at the level of the Sahara desert".

Birger Vestmo – NRK Filmpolitiet

The film received the Jury Prize at Cannes.

Director: Aki Kaurismäki
