Giving medals for shooting the wrong people

Crime noir of a guy planning to assassinate the president of Finland, but for target practice kills his girlfriend instead! Taavi Kassila's Jäähyväiset presidentille (Farewell, Mr. President) from 1987 is an interesting Finnish attempt to deliver a proper action thriller, but unfortunately takes itself a little too seriously.
