Trama

For Ari, nothing feels like anything. He doesn't do relationships, doesn't do attachments. There's only sex. That is until he meets Tiina. Together with Tiina and her closest circle of friends, this could be their last summer of freedom.

An old dog has a hard time learning new tricks in this drama set in Turku. Ari, a paramedic, is a chronic womanizer; he makes it a point of pride to never sleep with the same woman twice, and his nights are a long series of brazen one-night stands. But when Ari meets Tiina (Laura Malmivaara), something unexpected happens - he falls in love. For the first time, Ari finds himself pursuing a long-term relationship, and he makes a genuine effort to remain faithful to her. But old habits die hard; Tiina introduces Ari to her circle of friends and temptation arises as he encounters Hanna-Riikka, a theology student, and Ilona, who is soon to be married. Despite Ari's feelings for Tiina, he begins having affairs with both Hanna-Riikka and Ilona, leading to an unpleasant revelation on the day of Ilona's nuptials.—Mark Deming, Allrovi

Ari, 27, (MIKKO NOUSIAINEN) is an ambulance doctor working with the City of Turku Fire Department. Outside of work his main hobbies are one night stands. He doesn't want to meet any of them again because he is certain that commitment equals pain and he doesn't want to hurt anybody. Superficially, everything is fine, until Ari realizes he is unable to feel anything at all. Tiina (LAURA MALMIVAARA) meets Ari on the beach and they wind up in his apartment together. Without really intending to, they start dating each other, reaching the point where Tiina, falling in love, begins to look for commitment. She introduces Ari to her closest circle of friends: Ilona, Hanna-Riikka and their boyfriends, Stig (PETTERI SUMMANEN) and Riku (VALTTERI ROIHA). Knowing that it's their last free summer before careers kick in, the sextet aims to spend the light, sunny months partying and having fun. Ilona (MATLEENA KUUSNIEMI) has been dating Stig since her teens - so long that their relationship has become more companiable than passionate. They are to marry soon and Ilona is making a last-ditch attempt to find some variety and thrills. Hanna-Riikka (IRINA BJÖRKLUND), a Lutheran priest, challenges Ari to discuss what his behavior is doing to the group of friends. A connection forms between them on an intellectual level as Ari begins to find her philosophy fascinating. But Ari can't help himself. Friendship turns to hatred and Ari gradually realizes that he has managed to hurt people who have cared for him. It's autumn: the friends try to patch up their differences. But at Stig's and Ilona's wedding fantasy ends and the truth emerges. And Ari realizes that finally he's able to feel something...
