Overview
The film depicts a situation that any family could find itself in and that is dealt with in different ways. The Buschner family has divorced. The film does not attempt to search for reasons for the separation and apportion blame, but rather to show how the woman in particular, with her two children aged seven and eleven, copes with the effects of this drastic life event. The woman expresses her feelings shortly after the divorce and her wishes for the future. The man, who now has a new family, also shares his thoughts. The children's statements are particularly moving: despite their great helplessness in the conflict between their parents, they still have new hopes for their mother's relationship.

Viikinki
Documentary film about Tony Halme, masculinity and populism. The film follows how Tony Halme created a mythical, highly masculine freestyle wrestling character, The Viking, who gained fame both in the ring and in the public eye and eventually became captivated by it. With his brash speeches, Halme fired the starting shot for the rise of the Finns Party. The voice of a forgotten section of the population, a protest against the ruling elite, were the building blocks of Halme's popularity. Halme's great popularity has served as a good example of a populist figure, admired within the deep ranks of the nation, who comes from outside the political elite and changes the direction of politics. Also, despite - or perhaps because of - his openly racist statements, he was part of changing the political climate in Finland to a more acrimonious one.
