Award-wining filmmaker Aki Kaurismäki makes a masterful return with Fallen Leaves, a timeless, hopeful and satisfying love story that won the Jury Prize at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, Best International Feature Film at the Academy Awards and “Best Film of the Year” by The International Federation of Film Critics. Set in modern-day Helsinki, the film tells the story of Ansa (Alma Pöysti) and Holappa (Jussi Vatanen), two lonely souls whose chance meeting at a local karaoke bar is beset by numerous hurdles. From lost phone numbers to mistaken addresses, alcoholism and a charming stray dog, the pair’s path to happiness is as bittersweet as it is ultimately delightful. “A tender, beautifully directed love story” The New York Times.
Finland/Germany 2023 91 mins Dir: Aki Kaurismäki (subtitled)
