With unrest long simmering below the surface in a majority immigrant Helsinki suburb, police brutality results in a father being hospitalized, the incident compounded by the authorities' mistakes and often unintentional overreactions. A typically long, hot Finnish summer explodes into riots and violence as frustration and despair finally boil over. Set against the run-up to this cataclysmic climax, half-brothers Sipe, 14, and Juno, 26, struggle for a better future, an end to their alienation and to find new opportunities in life. Unfortunately for Juno, it may be too little, too late. Having abandoned all hope,he has travelled too far down the wrong road to turn back. The fuse has already been lit. (Nashville Film Festival)
