Sugar-coating the world

A long weekend and a group of Finns in a summerhouse by the lake with plenty of free time in their hands always includes alcohol and arguments. The oppressed emotions breaking free enable unmendable frictions in relationships. Throw in an unknown Swede crashing in and we're talking shitstorm that could end up in murder. Brilliantly performed drama with actors who haven't worn their faces out in drivel TV entertainment - Laura Birn, Emmi Parviainen, Eero Milonoff, Samuli Niittymäki, Paula Vesala, Christian Hillborg, Iida-Maria Heinonen and Paavo Kinnunen - they are true specimen of their profession. Directed by Jenni Toivoniemi.
