It was Finland's official Best Foreign Language Film submission at the 72nd Academy Awards, but did not manage to receive a nomination.

[2] The film starts when Jussi Murikka (Samuli Edelmann), Antti Karhu (Juha Veijonen) and Heikki Grönberg (Teemu Lehtilä) rob a bank together.

After he's not there to supervise Antti and Jussi decide to sell alcohol to children, which was strictly forbidden by the grandfather, before leaving the town for good.

This leads to Roope's death among five other children: they drive while drunk and end up in car accident.

They drive on a bridge when Jussi grabs the wheel and turns it, which makes them fall into the river.
