The Wedding Waltz
Viltteri, a balding guy in his thirties living in rural northern Finland, is hopelessly clueless about his new role as a married man and the father of a newborn son. A perfect escape from family responsibilities is having to get his old Hillman Minx repaired and inspected for road-worthiness, with a little help from an eccentric bunch of friends who never seem to have grown up either.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Director Markku Pölönen constructs a poignant tale on the contrast between the stifling quiet of domesticity and the grotesque, clownish chaos of the garage. He explores male friendship as a last bastion of childhood, using humor to soften the bittersweet truth about growing up.
What lingers after the viewing is a sense of gentle melancholy and a warm smile. The audience is treated not to a loud comedy, but to a subtle, observational sketch about the reluctant and hard-fought acceptance of a new life. — MovieFinder Editorial

Best Watched
Watch on a quiet evening, perhaps with a friend, to appreciate the typically Finnish dry humor and leisurely pace.
