There is always a man in Aki Korrismaki's films who gets slapped in the back of his head and gets money away.
The doctor refused to help because there was no owner. He walked out of the hospital alive.
He who has lost his memory is like an adult abandoned to the earth.
Living in the crowd, but like Rubinson, growing his own potatoes.
Someone lives in a garbage truck.
He took the opportunity to kiss the old maiden who said that people on earth should help each other. She said you stole my first kiss.
He knows how to let the dull band listen to rap and hip-hop and change the style of music.
"The human mind is narrow, but the vast land is infinite."
Without a name, he would be arrested. The intrepid lawyer argued with the arrested officials about the law.
There are enthusiastic people, but mostly indifferent. Despite this, it is enough for a passionate person to meet one.
Back home, his wife said, "You don't drink too much, but you gamble, play big dick, and lose all your records."

    It is still the usual Aki-style cold and humorous video style. The title of the film is "A man without a past". When the film is nearing the end, in a black humorous way, the man finds his "past". But the past is no longer important to him, because he has the present. In Akey's world, the bottom-level narrative is not limited to self-rescue and others' rescue, but also to the mutual sarcasm, downfall, and discrimination and exclusion from the middle class and the social system. "God only gift those who go to heaven, but on earth, we have to help each other", cold and warm.
