- A ski jumper descends from winning 4 Olympic Gold Medals, to serving two years for stabbing a relative. Careers as a stripper and singer, plus five marriages, replete with allegations of domestic violence are fictionalized sympathetically in this dramedy. Alleged exploitation/manipulation of Matti, due to his naivety and gullibility, along with deterioration of his skiing ability due to heavy drinking and bad decisions is emphasized. Many Matti malapropisms a la Yogi Berra, attributed to the Finnish skiing legend, are employed as biopic comic dialogue.

- Entrepreneurs get a bad name nowadays. Some of them deserve it. But there are exceptions to the rule. By portraying two entirely different Finish family enterprises with warmth and sympathy, the film gives an insight into new ways of doing business (with or without meat!), but also juxtaposes two different ways of living and surviving in the broader context of the post-modern neo-liberal capitalist society.
- Pentti Anttila is a journalist who accidentally ends up in to a mental institution. There he meets a woman who claims that she is being kept there by force. Penttilä starts to investigate the case and ends up in a little town named Järvensuu. There he drifts into a conflict with the local mob.
- 14-year-old Petri dreams about becoming an ice hockey professional. A triangle drama at home makes Dad move away and replaces him with Mutanen, the worst player in the local hockey team. Petri finds out a way to get the best out of Mutanen on ice: before a game, he has to be made really angry so his adrenaline gets flowing.
- A visitor's arrival to a mysterious house takes a strange turn when it becomes clear that the inhabitant has met him before. During a day spent together, the pair's shared past is uncovered, and their futures begin to intertwine.
- Finland is a country of contrasts. The enthralling white nights of summer, the mystery of the darkness of the winter months and differences in temperatures of up to 80 degrees Celsius, are often hard for people from elsewhere to comprehend. The fertile fields, dense forests, thousands of lakes, wilderness expanses of Lapland, majestic fells and the surrounding natural environment are all part of nature's wonder, and they create our unique four seasons. We experience fields abloom with flowers, the glorious russet palette of autumn and then the stark white and blue hues of winter. The greatness of Sibelius lies in his ability to have inhaled the drama of nature and to have reproduced this in his compositions so that strength and reservation strike a joint chord. The magic of the aurora borealis and the infinite charisma of nature would be impossible to describe without this music. Thanks to the latest digital technology, we are able to experience the sources of these incredible compositions through images and sounds, and we feel we are part of the creative process.
