Fallen Leaves

Aki Kaurismäki makes a masterful return in this hopeful and satisfying love story.

Fallen Leaves tells the story of Ansa and Holappa, two lonely souls who meet at a karaoke bar is beset by hurdles. But the pair’s path to happiness is as bittersweet as it is delightful.

Shot through Kaurismäki’s idiosyncratic lens, this tragicomedy is a reminder of the potency of movie-going.
