A nice little movie about relationships.
Good actor performances except for Eva Röse. Her character comes out totally without depth. She looks nice though, but the movie benefits from the fact that she's not appearing in too many scenes.
If you want to see something that totally deviate from the Hollywood Plastic-Fantastic formula, this movie gives a fairly accurate picture of life in Finland. Worth taking the time to see it...

Irina Björklund is very good in this Finnish picture, which although has its weaknesses. Its too clever in telling a great passion story. The people are too "real", too "uncompromising", too "brave". They are too much emotionally correct, so to say. It is also too obvious that we ought to like them and their feeling without reluctance.
It would be more interesting to see a film from the Nordic countries where the people are heroes because the DON'T dare, but seem to cope with their lives anyway, as good as it is possible
