Synopsis
Lapland Odyssey (Napapiirin sankarit, 2010) is the Finnish comedy from director Dome Karukoski that you can watch online on iFILM. A whole night of mayhem spins out of one ridiculous errand: buying a digital TV box.
Janne has built a career out of living on welfare and refuses to lift a finger. His girlfriend Inari has had enough — she handed him money for a digibox and he blew it. The ultimatum is plain: the box is home by dawn, or she's gone. So Janne and two equally hopeless friends head out across the frozen night toward Rovaniemi. The road serves up drunken brawls, a dead engine, easy money, bad temptations and a carload of Russian tourists who make everything worse.
Karukoski turns it into a road movie about three useless men who'd rather drive half of Lapland than admit they're lazy. The humor is dry, Nordic and often absurd, yet it warms up by the end into something honest about friendship and the trip mattering more than the prize. One for fans of European comedies with a bit of grit. Stream Lapland Odyssey (2010) online on iFILM.
