Overview
In modern-day Helsinki, two lonely souls in search of love meet 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.
To say that this film is slight would be an understatement. We are dropped into a world of people that are seemingly unknown to anyone. From the outside, it looks to be a dark and lonely place. But if you look closely, there seems to be glimpses of hope. This movie is about those flashes of hope.
