Film
Fallen Leaves (12A)
Dir. Aki Kaurismaki, Finland, 2023, 81 mins, subtitled. Cast. Alma Pöysti, Jussi Vatanen.
Award-winning filmmaker Aki Kaurismäki makes a masterful return with FALLEN LEAVES, a timeless, hopeful and ultimately satisfying love story about two lonely souls’ path to happiness – and the numerous hurdles they encounter along the way. Set in contemporary Helsinki, and shot through with Kaurismäki’s typically playful, idiosyncratic style and deadpan humour, this tender romantic tragicomedy is a timely reminder of the potency of movie-going from one of cinema’s living legends.
Winner of the Jury Prize at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival.
