The film is a love letter to Rauma

Directed by Lauri-Matti Parppei, a Rauma-born director-screenwriter-composer, the movie is an emotional, unapologetic, and intense debut about young adults on the edge of creativity and collapse. The cast includes Samuel Kujala, Rauma native Anna Rosaliina Kauno, Kaisa-Leena Koskenkorva, Camille Auer, Mari Rantasila, and Jarkko Pajunen.

The film is produced by the production company Made, with Norwegian co-producer Goodtime Pictures. It has received funding from the Finnish Film Foundation, Yle, the City of Rauma, the Erkki Paasikivi Foundation, and the Norwegian Mediefondet Zefyr fund. The movie will premiere in theaters in the fall of 2025, distributed by B-Plan Distribution. The City of Rauma is contributing €20,000 to the production.
