Markku Peltola’s Typical Vibe
2 films — measured, wistful, moderate, clear, quiet
The ever-poker-faced Ilona loses her job as a restaurant hostess, as her tram driver husband, Lauri, also finds himself out of work. Together they must hit the streets of Helsinki, facing up to hardship and humiliation in their quest for survival, guided through the gloom by a ray of hope.
Dir. Aki Kaurismäki · With Kati Outinen, Kari Väänänen, Elina Salo
Arriving in Helsinki, a nameless man is beaten within an inch of his life by thugs, miraculously recovering only to find that he has completely lost his memory. Back on the streets, he attempts to begin again from zero, befriending a moody dog and becoming besotted with a Salvation Army volunteer.
Dir. Aki Kaurismäki · With Markku Peltola, Kati Outinen, Juhani Niemelä
