Synopsis
Award-winning filmmaker Aki Kaurismäki (LE HAVRE, THE OTHER SIDE OF HOPE) makes a masterful return with FALLEN LEAVES, a timeless, hopeful, and ultimately satisfying love story about two lonely souls’ path to happiness — and the numerous hurdles they encounter along the way. Set in contemporary Helsinki, and shot through with Kaurismäki’s typically playful, idiosyncratic style and deadpan humor, this tender romantic tragicomedy is a timely reminder of the potency of movie-going from one of cinema’s living legends. Winner of the Jury Prize at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival.
