In modern-day Helsinki, two lonely souls in search of lvoe met by chance in a karaoke bar. However, their path to happiness is beset by obstacles - from lost phone numbers to mistaken addresses, alcoholism, and a charming stray dog.
Aki Kaurismkai's 2017 film The Other Side of Hope won Best Director award at the 67th Berlin International Film Festival. At the same festival he also announced that it would be this last film as a director. It's fortunate that he changed his mind, because this subsequent film, Fallen Leaves, perfects much of the carefully curated melancholy, deadpan humour and poignancy for which he is renowned.
