Synopse

Family man Juha (T. Korpela) loses his job. He is so worried about his depressive wife that he keeps it a secret while hatching out a plan. He becomes a callboy, and his first job is brushing a woman's hair, naked. He now makes more in two hours than he previously made in two days. Only his mate Olli (J. Volanen) knows his secret. A social commentary, almost British in its melancholic sense of humour.

Aleksi Salmenperä (*1973) works as a director and screenplay writer and became widely known through his films Producing Adults (2004), A Man's Work (2007) and Distractions (2015) for which he received the Finnish film prize.
