Bartholomeus and Balthasar are vagabonds and street musicians from the Balkans. They have ended up living in an abandoned house somewhere on the outskirts of a big city, both of them alcoholics and withdrawn from society. They aren’t too bright, but there is still a lot of dignity and beauty in their lives. This serious comedy studies the phenomenal ability of human beings to seek and find light even though the world around them seems dark, unjust, greedy and violent. In this world, one person tries to tell himself a story with a happy ending.with Krista Kosonen, Juha Kukkonen, Ville Virtanen, Antti Virmavirta
