    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      The film was shot in four weeks. The screenplay by Marja-Leena Mikkola was used as a framework, but a lot of the dialogue was improvised on the set together with the director and actors. Director Mikko Niskanen wanted the characters to be loose and natural, and not too theatrical.
