Kansan mies

2013–2014 · 1 season

A quiet, introspective study of a man stripped of his purpose, watching him drift through the wreckage of a life built on politics.

Overview: The life of Aki Honkala, a blindly dedicated Member of the European Parliament, takes a radical turn during one scandal-plagued election night. The fall from grace is no surprise to anyone but himself. The people have spoken, let the chatter go - but what remains of a man who has lived and breathed politics for most of his adult life?
How it feels: Melancholic, tense, cynical and earnest. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Politics, identity, power, corruption
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
