Description | The author Tommi Kinnunen dives into the Finnish history by way of love. He has created weaves where love pulsates, breaks and wounds. The beauty of everyday life frames the movingness in the narratives, where the tears of happiness turn into fragments of dreams. The choreographers bring in also their own humour, which laughs at the national clichés. |
