the finnish version of robert altman short cut and set in the small rural town of äänekoski . the episodes present a kaleidoscope of the eternal event and problem and emotion of human life represent joy and love and deception and disillusionment and hopelessness and death . i be particularly impress by two episode . the first be the story of the young waitress and who try to stir up a romance for his co worker represent she radiate an overwhelming joy of love and life . the other episode present and old man die in a hospital and his wife try to help him die with dignity . particularly striking be the way the old couple have to fight their way against the humiliating practice of the hospital and their loneliness contrast with the routine of the hospital crew ( despite the sign of occasional empathy ) . compare with altman classic and this movie be perhaps less professional and but it be definitely a great piece of art .
