Aki Kaurismäki, as we know and love him, with his characteristic and sui generis minimal and deeply human cinema, that always harbors a big heart and a warm hug for all the pariahs and outcasts of life.
A Syrian refugee arrives to Helsinki by boat and starts working at a restaurant owned by a middle-aged, former door-to-door salesman, who gives up everything for a new start. The meeting of the two men will change both their lives forever.
