Synopsis : Napapiirin Sankarit – Lapland Odyssey (2010)
The movie takes place in wintery Lapland where Janne has problems managing his life. When his wife Inari gives him money to buy a digital box for the TV, he ends up drinking with his two buddies Kapu and Räihänen. Inari has had enough and gives him an ultimatum: he needs to get the digital box by morning or else she will leave him. Janne and his two friends set out into the night trying to make their way to the nearest big city in hopes of making money on the way. Needless to say, it doesn’t turn out to be very simple and the trip becomes an adventure with many humorous turns.
