A Documentary

Last night I went to see a Finnish documentary 'About a Farm', which was part of EU Film Days program. I enjoyed the film with all my heart.

Before I saw the film I had no idea that it took place in that area of Finland where I grew up. It was a pleasant surprise to see sceneries I was so used to seeing when I was a kid and to hear people speak slowly with few words and long pauses.

Kaurismäki's dialogue style isn't that fictionary after all.
