The fates of various characters become interlaced over a long and light-filled summer night in the Finnish countryside.

Thomcat (Not rated)
There seems to be a implicit gay character. The cinematography by Eino Heino is excellent. The film offers a ‘warm-hearted and sensitive’ evocation of the ordinary but compressed for dramatic purposes.
