Cheng, 45, a restaurant owner from China, has travelled with his young son halfway around the world to a remote village in Finland. His wife died recently in an accident, and Cheng wanted to have a break from everything by traveling with his son to see an old Finnish friend who lives on a farm in the countryside of Finland. It’s the most remote place Cheng can imagine with endless forests, thousands of lakes, a country with entire population of one-fifth of Cheng’s home town, Shanghai.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a story of healing on the contrast of two cultures, relying on quiet humor and contemplative pauses rather than loud dramatics. It explores fatherhood and grief as universal languages that transcend words.

What lingers after viewing is a gentle, warm journey where funny cultural clashes gradually give way to quiet melancholy and understanding. A film that feels like a deep, calming breath — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Mika Kaurismäki
