Synopsis

Pitch-noir melodrama about young Kauko's endless obsession and love-hate-relationship with Osmi, a girl he has known since childhood. Standing at her death bed, Kauko reminisces his years spent as a sailor, prisoner, smuggler, and a soldier in the Second World War, while Osmi manages to evolve from prostitution to a seemingly happy family life with someone else.
