Janne, Kapu and Räihänen are friends and together they have always very funny and they take care of each other in every situation. They also drink often. The characters seem real and they grow and develop during the movie. They understand what friendship and honesty means.
The story begins when Inari is giving money to Janne and asks him to buy a digibox. The sum of money goes on drinking for example. Inari says that she should leave Janne if she didn`t get a digibox by tomorrow morning. Janne and his friends must go to Rovaniemi to buy a digibox because there is Inari`s father`s electronics shop. They have only a one big problem. They don`t have money. They have to earn it somehow. They wash cars windscreens and they butcher one reindeer for example. They have many difficulties.
The setting of this movie is Northern Finland. The friends spend their time in the car, in the gas statioin etc. The landscape is very beautiful in Rovaniemi for example. The friends trip takes only a one day. The story begins Janne´s home and ends there too, when Janne gives the digibox to Inari in a special way. On the trip Janne butchered the reindeer to the Russians, but they didn`t pay it to Janne. Finally The Russians bring the digibox to Janne by helicopter.
The narrator in the story is Kapu and the main theme of this novel is friendship and love. Movie`s message is that you can`t leave your frinds when she or he is in trouble.
The best part in the story is the event when Janne, Kapu and Räihänen are running outdoors and they are dressing up car`s seats jackets. The whole movie is very entertaining and funny. For that reason I recommend it to everybody.
