An alcoholic, a man struggling with depression, a former soldier, a father deprived of parental authority and a patient with a heart condition. All of them are citizens of the world’s happiest country – Finland, just like the film director, who decides to take a closer look at his countrymen. He picks those who are apparently the most privileged, white and middle-aged. The men decide to share their own lives with him, tell him about their problems, painful experiences or mistakes of their youth. The film disproves the findings of optimistic surveys and, instead, shows a completely different perspective.
