Fallen Leaves tells the story of two lonely peoplewho meet each other by chance in the Helsinki night and try to find the first, only, and ultimate love of their lives.Their path towards this honourable goal is clouded by the man's alcoholism, lost phone numbers, not knowing each other's names or addresses, and life's general tendency to place obstacles in the way of those seeking their happiness.This gentle tragicomedy, previously thought to be lost, is the fourth part of Aki Kaurismäki's working-class trilogy.One evening, against his will, Holappa is dragged to a karaoke bar by a friend. "Tough guys don't sing", he says. But karaoke night is also a night for romance, and when Holappa meets the shy Ansa, there's an immediate spark. But life being what it is, a variety of obstacles conspire to get in the way...
