Review of "Fallen Leaves"

Summary

Withthe directors unique sparse and allusive style a love story for modern times.

Full review

Excellent acting by Ansa and Holappa and others. Life in the menial class in Helsinki - zero hours shitjobs, propoganda in the media, drinking and movies going, total alienation.

Shot in the same style as The Other Side of Hope  and is other films
